How to Make Mango And Lime Sorbet

  1. Peel and chop 2 ripe mangoes into chunks.
  2. Puree the mango chunks and 2 tablespoons of lime juice in a blender until completely smooth.
  3. Set the mango puree aside.
  4. In a small heatproof bowl, sprinkle 1 teaspoon of unflavored gelatin over 3 tablespoons of lime juice.
  5. Place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (double boiler) and stir constantly until the gelatin is completely dissolved. Remove from heat.
  6. Gently whisk the gelatin-lime mixture into the mango puree.
  7. In a separate clean, grease-free bowl, beat 2 large egg whites with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
  8. Gradually add 1/2 cup granulated sugar or Splenda to the egg whites while continuing to beat until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  9. Gently fold the whipped egg whites into the mango puree until just combined. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites.
  10. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container. Freeze for 2 hours.
  11. Remove from the freezer and vigorously whisk the sorbet to break up any ice crystals. Return to the freezer.
  12. Repeat step 11 every hour for the next 3-4 hours, or until the sorbet is firm but not rock-hard.
  13. If the sorbet is frozen solid, let it sit in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes before serving to soften slightly.
  14. Scoop the sorbet into bowls and garnish with lime zest strips for an extra touch of freshness.
