Ingredients

130g sugar
230ml water
1 Darts Farm Cantaloupe Melon

Method

In a saucepan, bring the sugar and water to boil
Reduce the heat to maintain a steady simmer and cook until it thickens (approx. 10 minutes), then remove from heat
While the mixture cools to room temperature; peel, seed and cut the melon into cubes.
Pop the melon into a blender or food processor and blend until pureed. If needed, use some of the cooled syrup to help combine.
Place the blended melon into a bowl, and slowly start adding the sugar syrup. It should be slightly oversweet than you want the final sorbet to taste.
Cover and chill the mixture in the refridgerator for at least 1 hour/up to overnight.
Pour into a metal pan and freeze, stir every 30/60 mins until frozen through.
Enjoy your refreshing sorbet at an evening barbqecue with friends!
