Creamy Mango Cardamom Sorbet



Ingredients

  • 2 mangoes, sliced
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (Possible Substitutions: half and half, single cream)
  • 1/4 cup lowfat milk
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/4 cup light corn syrup
  • 1/4 cup agave nectar
  • 6 cardamom pods, shelled with seeds ground.

Possible Substitutions: instead of corn syrup and agave, which was all I had at the time, make a simple syrup instead. To do this combine 1/2 cup of water and 1/2 cup of sugar in saucepan, boil and cool. Omit additional water from the recipe, follow directions below:

  1. Add all ingredients to a bowl or mixer and blend well. If you would like chunks of mango, reserve a few pieces and add to mixture after blended.
  2. Add to ice cream maker. Freeze thoroughly.
    If you do not have an ice cream maker, just place in an airtight container and place in the freezer. Take it out and stir once an hour for 3 hours, or until it's frozen.
