Orange Cheese Sherbet Recipe

Orange Cheese Sherbet Recipe

225 g/8 oz/1 cup cottage cheese
5 ml/1 tsp finely grated orange rind
30 ml/2 tbsp orange juice

60 ml/4 tbsp clear honey
150 ml plain yoghurt
A pinch of ground ginger

1 egg white
Thinly pared orange rind, to decorate

Method:

Puree all the ingredients except the egg white in a blender or food processor, or pass the cheese through a sieve (strainer) and beat in the remaining ingredients. Turn into a metal or plastic container, cover with foil and freeze for 2 hours. Whisk thoroughly with a fork to break up the ice crystals. Whisk the egg white until stiff and fold into the mixture with a metal spoon. Re-cover and freeze for 1.5 hours. Whisk again with a fork, then freeze until firm. To serve, spoon into wine goblets and sprinkle with thinly pared orange rind.
