1/2 cup lime juice

2 teaspoon grated lime rind

Method

1.In a medium saucepan, combine sugar and water. Stir over low heat for 2-3 minutes until dissolved. Bring to boil. Simmer, without stirring, for 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Cool.

2.Place pawpaw into a food processor or blender. Process until smooth. Whisk puree into syrup with lime juice, rind and ginger.

3.Pour into an ice-cream maker (see tip). Churn, to manufacturer’s instructions. Pour into a loaf pan. Cover with foil and freeze.

If you don’t have an ice-cream maker, pour syrup into a loaf pan, cover with foil and freeze until almost set. Transfer to a chilled bowl, add egg whites and beat for 2-3 minutes with an electric beater (or in a food processor) until all ice particles have broken up. Return to pan and freeze until firm. Other fruit puree may be used according to taste and availability of fruit.
