Passionfruit & Orange Sorbet

June 28, 2013 By JJ 15 Comments

Passionfruit & Orange Sorbet

We added another doona onto the bed the other night. The heater in the lounge room is getting a workout – as is the power bill I’m sure. I pretty much live in an ancient cashmere jumper and occasionally layer it with a puffy down vest. I haven’t taken off my  Ugg boots in days. Can you tell I don’t do winter very well?

Passionfruit & Orange Sorbet

So why on earth am I making sorbet? Well it uses the best of local NSW winter citrus, and not quite as local Queensland winter passionfruit to create an instant tropical treat… And if I sit right in front of the heater I can almost pretend it’s summer – ha!

Passionfruit & Orange Sorbet

After using part of my passionfruit stash for these Spicy Passionfruit & Prawn Lettuce Cups I knew the rest had to go into something sweet.

Since I’ve been slightly addicted to a new Orange Dreamsicle Smoothie invention this simply seemed like a logical next step. I love it when a plan comes together. I even had enough pulp leftover to freeze up for later.

Passionfruit & Orange Sorbet

Oh summer I miss you.

3-ingredient Passionfruit & Orange Sorbet

A dose of summer in the middle of winter uses sweet orange and tangy passionfruit to create an instant treat.

Makes: approx 2 cups

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 large orange, peeled
  • 1 banana, frozen
  • 1/4 c passionfruit pulp, plus extra to serve

METHOD

Remove centre bit from orange [if there is one] and any seeds, cut segments in half. Blend orange until very smooth.

Cut frozen banana into rounds, blend with orange puree. Blend or stir in passionfruit pulp, blending will chop up the seeds.

Serve as is or place in a shallow container in the freezer for approx 2 hours, stirring occasionally to keep the sorbet smooth as is freezes.

If frozen for more than a couple hours you may need to let the sorbet thaw for 10 mins on the counter before scooping. Drizzle with extra passionfruit pulp if you wish.

COOK’S NOTES

  • Refrigerate the orange overnight so the mixture starts off even colder and freezes quicker.
  • If you have a good blender/immersion blender there is no need to cut off the peel and segment the sections. just peel and blend the segments until smooth.
  • Adding a tsp or two of rum or another liquor will lower the freezing point and keep the sorbet softer but it is not necessary.

    I LOVE winter! Everything you were saying about heaters and Fiona’s and cashmere sounded magic to me. Ah well, at least we can meet in the middle over sorbet.

    I don’t cope very well with the cold either but I still eat sorbet even though it’s winter. I just finished my peach sorbet for lunch so I’ll try this one next. It looks fabulous!

I took this video on Jan 1. I even wrote a caption I took this video on Jan 1. I even wrote a caption and everything. And I intended to post it that day as a reflection moving into a new year. But instead, mom and I went out for pizza and wine, and then it was Jan 2, and so on and so on. 
🌀
So instead you’re getting it on Feb 1. A new day and another new month (but what is a new month or a new year, other than a societal convention really). 
☀️
Because, each day, each sunrise, we have the opportunity to start anew - no matter how big or little that start may be. A chance to take another step forward - no matter how many steps back you feel you’re fighting against. 
🌀
Whether this past year brought blinding joy or paralysing grief (and in whatever measure of balance or imbalance), I hope each new day sees the landscape of your life look one step closer to what you imagine it to be. And that when the waves roll in and change that landscape, you can roll with it and see the beauty and possibility on the other side.
🌊
If you’ve made it this far, congratulations, have a cookie 🍪 And I’ll leave you with the rolling waves and blue sky of a California beach in January. I truly hope this year sees us all grow stronger and move forward with each new day. Going backwards is simply not an option.

When the middle little insisted on buying quail eggs over Christmas, but due to allll the other food we never cooked them, I simply couldn’t let the little guys go to waste. 
🥚
Could I have made one dish? Of course. Did I instead prepare quail eggs four ways, bake mini loaves of brioche, make mini waffles, dig through the prop closet for the smallest dishes, and set up an entire table? Of course I did. 
💥
Swipe to the end for reference on the size of the eggs and loaf.

My go-to pizza topping combo 🍕 Made on that dou My go-to pizza topping combo 🍕 Made on that dough from a couple weeks ago and voiced by the middle little (who is about as different from her younger sister as you can get!) 💥.
🍕
Sometimes this combo gets prawns too 🍤. Most of the time I don’t bother mixing the ingredients in a bowl and just layer them on top. The cheese is a hard goat cheese (because I can’t do 🐄). The ‘spices’ 🌱 is Sicilian oregano. The measurements are random at best - a handful of this, a splash of that. 
🍕
If you have a fave veggie or seafood pizza combo I’d love to hear it. Because as Ms.S says, voila, yummy yummy pizza!
