Created by Kenwood ambassador, cook and TV personality Diana Chan, this recipe pairs blood orange and lemon flavours for a match made in sorbet heaven. Swap blood oranges for Valencia oranges during summer to create with fresh and seasonal produce. For the smoothest texture, Chan uses Kenwood’s Cooking Chef XL stand mixer with the frozen dessert maker attachment to effortlessly churn the sorbet. Here we give you the step-by-step recipe to this summer-ready dessert.

3.Repeat with the same ingredients for the orange sorbet, heating the zest, glucose, sugar and water until boiling before removing from the heat and allowing to cool.
4.Once cool, mix in the lemon, orange and blood or Valencia orange juice into each respective pan and stir until well combined.
5.Churn the sorbets individually in the frozen dessert maker for 45 minutes and store in the freezer until ready to serve.
