Ingredients

Method

1.Preheat oven to 180°C. Lightly grease and line 2 baking trays.
2.In a large saucepan combine water and sugar. Stir over low heat for 2-3 minutes until sugar dissolves. Add pears, bring to boil. Simmer 10-15 minutes until pears are tender. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup of liquid.
3.Transfer pears to a food processor or blender with reserved liquid and juice. Process until smooth. Pour pear mixture into a 20 x 30cm lamington pan. Freeze until almost set.
4.Transfer to a food processor or blender. Process with egg-whites until smooth. Pour into 10x 20cm loaf pan. Cover and freeze overnight until firm.
5.Make tuilles by combining all ingredients in a small bowl. Drop heaped teaspoons 6cm apart onto each of the prepared trays. Spread mixture into very thin circles.
6.Bake for 6-8 minutes until lightly browned around edges. Remove tuilles from trays with a spatula and place over rolling pin to cool and curl. Store in an airtight container.
7.Serve pear sorbet in scoops with tuilles.

Egg-whites help prevent your sorbet becoming too icy by impeding the growth of ice crystals.
