Mango, Lime & Ginger sorbet - YUM

[medpedspouse]

I did a search in case anyone else had come up with this wonderful delight but did not find it. So, my apologies if someone else has already posted such.

I had this at a friends house and thought it was good enough to share while I finish making a batch of my own.

Friend does not cook with recipes - just by taste - so here goes what we estimated of each ingredient.

1 Large ripe mango (or 2 smaller ones - about 2 cups chopped)
3 Limes
1 inch fresh ginger
1 cup water
1 cup sugar

Dissolve sugar in water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil for a minute and let cool. Meanwhile, chop mango, juice limes and peel ginger. Mix all ingredients in a blender and then pour in to ice cream maker. Voila!!

It was gooood.
Since I did not want to come across like a pig, I did not ask for seconds. So, tonight I ate the seconds, thirds, and fourths I wish I had had the other night.

I've got a question for you ice cream/sorbet gurus...
Do I have to add the water and sugar mix? What would have happened if I had not? I think it would have been just as good without the sugar...healthier too.
