Ingredients
Kiwi Sorbet
Peel the kiwis and cut one into 6 thin slices. Puree the remaining kiwis in a blender and strain through a sieve.
In a saucepan bring the sugar and 3 1/2 ounces of water to a boil, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Reduce to a simmer and cook until syrupy, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and let cool. Stir in the kiwi puree, lime juice, and zest. Beat the egg whites until stiff and fold into the kiwi mixture. Scrape into a flat metal mold and freeze 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
When the mixture is half frozen, spoon into 6 ramekins or cups and place a slice of kiwi on top of each. Insert a wooden stick and freeze at least 3 hours.
Remove from the freezer 5 minutes before serving and lift out of the ramekins.

Healthy, because
Kiwi contains plenty of vitamin C, which acts as a powerful antioxidant that boosts your immune system, helps in the production of collagen, and fends off infection and inflammation.
