Ingredients
- Ingredients
- 2 Oganic oranges
- 50 grams sugar
- 100 milliliters white wine
- 2 Tbsps Lemon verbena
- 1 egg
- 500 grams Melon (cantaloupe)
- 400 grams Yogurt (low-fat)
- 2 Tbsps honey
- 2 Tbsps Orange liqueur
Preparation steps
Rinse oranges in hot water, pat dry and grate zest of 1 orange. Squeeze juice from both oranges.
Boil sugar with wine in a pot and remove from heat. Add lemon verbena leaves, orange juice and zest and allow to cool.
Pour mixture through a strainer into a bowl. Separate egg (save yolk for another use). Beat egg white until stiff and fold into the orange mixture.
Place mixture in a shallow metal bowl and freeze for 4 hours, stirring occasionally. Alternatively, freeze in an ice cream maker.
Meanwhile, scoop the melon flesh with a melon baller.
Stir together the yogurt, honey and liqueur. Place half of the melon balls into 4 glasses. Distribute yogurt mixture in glasses and fill up with remaining melon balls. Top with sorbet and serve immediately.
