Guava Mint Sorbet (4-6 servings)

Ingredients 180g / 6oz granulated sugar 280ml / 1 1/2 pints water 4 ripe guavas  30g / 2 tbsps chopped fresh mint  1 lime 1 egg white Fresh mint leaves for garnish Preparation Method Combine the sugar and water in a heavy-based saucepan and bring slowly to the boil to dissolve the sugar.  When the mixture is a clear syrup, boil rapidly for 30 seconds.  Allow to cool to room temperature and then chill in the refrigerator. Cut the guavas in half and scoop out the pulp.  Discard the peels and seeds and purée the fruit until smooth in a food processor.  Add mint and combine with cold syrup.  Add lime juice until the right balance of sweetness reached. Pour the mixture onto a shallow container and freeze until slushy.  Process again to break up ice crystals and then freeze until firm. Whip the egg white until stiff but not dry.  Process the sorbet when smooth, add the egg white.  Mix once or twice and then freeze again until firm. Remove from the freezer 15 minutes before serving and keep in the refrigerator.  Garnish each serving with mint leaves.
