Ultimate Vanilla Ice Cream with Tropical Granita & Lime
/Recipe by Louis Tikaram
Serves: 4
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
½ cup water
½ ripe pineapple, peeled and roughly chopped
½ cup caster sugar
½ lime, juiced
2 scoops Norco Cape Byron Ultimate Vanilla Ice Cream
Method
Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan over low heat and allow the sugar to dissolve completely without stirring. Remove from heat and let the syrup cool to room temperature. In a stick blender or food processor, blend the cooled sugar syrup, pineapple pieces, and lime juice on high until smooth and free of chunks. Transfer the mixture to a shallow baking tray and freeze for at least 4 hours, or overnight. Once frozen, scrape the granita with a fork to create light, fluffy crystals. Serve over two scoops of Norco Cape Byron Ultimate Vanilla Ice Cream and garnish with a touch of lime zest.
