Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups ripe plums pitted and chopped
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Pinch of salt

Method
 

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the water and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely. Remove from heat and let cool.
  2. In a blender or food processor, combine the chopped plums, cardamom, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth.
  3. Once the sugar water has cooled, add it to the plum mixture and blend again until well combined.
  4. Pour the mixture into a shallow dish and place it in the freezer. Freeze for about 2 hours, then stir with a fork to break up any ice crystals.
  5. Return to the freezer and repeat the stirring process every 30 minutes for about 2-3 hours, or until the sorbet is firm and fluffy.
  6. Once ready, scoop the sorbet into bowls and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a creamier texture, consider adding 1/2 cup of coconut milk to the mixture before freezing.
  • Try substituting the plums with ripe peaches or nectarines for a different flavor profile.
