A sweet take on Azerbaijan’s alça sauce, made from sour plums, this sorbet comes together without cooking by freezing puréed plums. This dairy-free recipe is stirred regularly in the freezer for a smooth texture.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Make the purée

8 min

Blend the plums with the sugar, lemon juice and water until smooth.

2

Pour into a shallow dish

2 min

Pour the mixture into a wide, shallow dish and place it in the freezer.

3

Freeze and stir

180 min

Freeze for 3 hours, stirring with a fork every 30 minutes. Stirring regularly breaks up the ice crystals and gives the sorbet a smooth texture.

4

Soften slightly and serve

5 min

Take the sorbet out of the freezer and leave it for a few minutes, then scoop and serve.

Reminder

Do not skip the stirring steps while the sorbet freezes. Otherwise, the mixture may turn into a solid block of ice that is difficult to scoop.
