Zubereitung von Watermelon Granita
- Blend 1 kg of cubed seedless watermelon in a food processor until almost smooth. You may leave a few small chunks for added texture.
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1/3 cup water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes, or until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves and let cool completely.
- Strain the cooled sugar syrup through a fine-mesh sieve into a large jug. Discard the mint leaves.
- Gently combine the pureed watermelon and the strained sugar syrup in the jug. Stir well to combine.
- Pour the mixture into a shallow, freezer-safe dish (approximately 9x9 inches or similar).
- Freeze for 30 minutes. Then, using a fork, scrape the partially frozen mixture into icy flakes. Repeat this process every 30 minutes for approximately 3 hours, or until the granita is completely frozen and has a light, fluffy texture.
- Serve immediately in chilled glasses. Garnish with fresh mint leaves.
