Ingredients
lemons (zest and juice)
2
caster sugar
250 g
plain yogurt
500 g
Instructions
1
Prepare lemons
Grate lemon zest, taking care not to grate the bitter white pith. Sprinkle the zest over the sugar and let the sugar absorb the lemon essential oil aroma.
2
Heat the sugar syrup
Place the aromatic sugar in a small saucepan (the original text references a chauffe-eau, assumed to be a small pot), add lemon juice and heat gently, stirring until the sugar is fully dissolved.
3
Combine with yogurt
Pour the yogurt into a bowl, add the cooled syrup. Whisk vigorously until the mixture is completely uniform.
4
Freeze
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker or a freezer-safe container, and freeze for approximately 2 hours.
5
Garnish
Unmold or scoop into balls, garnish with lemon slices or mint leaves.
