Raspberry granita

There are many delicious granitas in Italy, but raspberries make a particularly good one

Ingredients

  • 1 unwaxed lemon , juiced and zested
  • 700g raspberries
  • 150g granulated sugar

    Method

    1. Put all the ingredients into a saucepan and heat gently until the sugar has dissolved, then simmer gently for 10 minutes. Take off the heat, sieve and cool.
    2. Pour into an ice-cream machine and churn until frozen. Alternatively, pour into a shallow container and freeze for about 10-20 minutes until crystals start to form. Put the mixture into a bowl and, using a fork, break up the ice crystals. Return to the freezer for a further 40 minutes or until firm. Transfer to the fridge for 30 minutes before serving.
