I would be interested to hear what YOU think…

Banana sorbet is a great way to use up those bananas that are very ripe and you have not had time to eat. The sorbet can be substituted for ice cream and is delicious sprinkled with chopped nuts, or served on a bed or pureed berries or kiwifruit.

Ingredients:

1 ripe banana
A drop or two of vanilla (optional)

Method:

1. Peel the banana and cut it into chunks.

2. Place the chunks, uncovered, on a tray or plate in the freezer for an hour or more (overnight is fine).

3. When you would like to serve, take out the banana and put the frozen pieces into a blender or food processor, until smooth.

4. Scrape down the sides as necessary until the banana texture becomes smooth and creamy.

5. Serve in a dish and decorate to your taste.
