Ingredients
- 125 g caster sugar
- 375 ml blood orange juice (about 10 blood oranges)
- Finely grated zest from 2 of the oranges
- Juice ½ lemon
- 200 ml La Española Gourmet Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Directions
- Put the sugar in a saucepan with 100 ml of the blood orange juice, heat gently until the sugar dissolves. Pour into a bowl and leave to cool completely.
- Stir in the zest, remaining blood orange juice, lemon juice and La Española Extra Virgin Gourmet Olive Oil. Churn in an ice cream machine according to the instructions.
- Turn into a freezer-proof container and freeze until ready to use. Remove from the freezer and place in the fridge for 10 minutes to make it easier to scoop.
- Serve scooped into glasses or small bowls.
If you don’t have an ice cream machine, in step 2, beat with an electric whisk, pour into a large plastic container, then freeze for 1-2 hours, until slushy. Whisk again. Freeze for a further 1½-2 hours, or until firm.
