Mango yoghurt sorbet with tropical fruit

Serves 6

Cooking Time Prep time 15 mins, cook 15 mins (plus freezing)



165 gm (¾ cup)   white sugar
2 tbsp   julienned ginger
75 ml   green ginger wine
2   mangoes, cheeks removed, peeled and cut into wedges
2   ripe bananas, thickly sliced crossways
1   red papaya, seeds removed, thickly sliced
Mango yoghurt sorbet
220 gm (1 cup)   white sugar
650 gm   thick natural yoghurt
1 tbsp   lime juice
100 gm (about ½ mango)   coarsely chopped mango
½   vanilla bean, scraped seeds only


1 For mango yoghurt sorbet, combine sugar and ½ cup water in a small saucepan and stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves, bring to the boil, then remove from heat and cool. Whisk yoghurt in a bowl until smooth, add ¾ cup sugar syrup and lime juice and whisk to combine. Churn in an ice-cream maker according to manufacturer’s instructions. Meanwhile, process mango, vanilla seeds and a little remaining sugar syrup to taste (you may not need all the syrup, depending upon the natural sweetness of the mango) until smooth. Transfer frozen yoghurt mixture to a bowl, fold through mango purée to form a rippled effect and freeze for 6 hours or until firm. Makes about 1 litre.
2 Combine sugar, ginger and ¾ cup water in a saucepan and stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Bring to the simmer and cook for 10-12 minutes or until ginger is translucent. Remove from heat, add wine and stir to combine, then cool.
3 Combine fruit in a bowl, pour over enough ginger syrup to coat and toss. Serve fruit and remaining syrup with mango yoghurt sorbet.
