This is the essence of elegance--simple, pure and clean tasting--a lovely sorbet for cleansing the palate between courses of an asian meal or for making Ming's fabulous Asian Banana Split, posted here on Zaar. Cooking time is chilling and freezing time.

I love this sorbet! It couldn't be simpler. I added some chunks of mango as the mixture started to thicken in the ice cream maker. Served Cinnamon Wontons alongside. Perfect!

    MMMMM really good! I'm lazy so I just dissolved the sugar in the coconut milk without heating. It worked fine. I also added some lime juice from 3 large limes, about 2/3 cup, and it turned out really well. There might be a tad too much shredded coconut, but might just be my taste ... definitely recommend this!

    I halved this recipe and used half and half for the coconut milk, and also did not heat the mixture. Since we do not have an ice cream maker, I sealed up all the ingredients into a quart size zip lock bag, then put that into a gallon size bag filled with ice and ice cream salt. I then shook the bag for about 20 minutes, and had instant ice cream. The flavor of the coconut is grand! Next up.... Coconut Popsicles! Thanks for posting.

    I made this sorbet for our church ice cream social (which was rained out and thus cancelled). So, our family enjoyed every last bit of it. We loved it. This time, I'm going to add 1/4 cup of lime juice to a double batch. I know it'll be scrumptious. Thanks for a great recipe for our lactose free family.
