If you are looking for a sorbet that combines unexpected flavors, this beet-orange sorbet is for you. The subtle sweetness of the beet is perfectly combined with the refreshing acidity of the orange, creating an original, colorful and ultra-fresh dessert.
Ingredients :
- 1 small cooked beet (about 150 g)
- 200 ml of fresh orange juice (about 2 oranges)
- 2 tablespoons agave syrup (adjust to taste)
- 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
- 80 ml of water
- 1 small pinch of salt (optional)
Preparation :
- Prepare the beets
if your beet is raw, cook it in water or steam until it is very tender. Let cool completely. Once cooked and cooled, cut it into pieces to facilitate mixing. - Mixes the ingredients
in a blender, adds the beet pieces, the fresh orange juice, the agave syrup, lemon juice, water and a pinch of salt. Mix until you get a very smooth texture. Just the color of this mixture is already beautiful, a deep red that throws it away! - Pour into the Ninja Creami container
transfers the preparation in the Ninja Creami container, taking care not to exceed the Max Fill . Then head for the freezer for 24 hours . - The moment of the sorbet!
After 24 hours of freezing, inserts the container in the Ninja Creami and uses the "Sorbet" . In a few minutes, you will get a super colorful and perfectly smooth sorbet. - Respin tip
If the texture is still too firm after the first cycle, uses the "Respin" and adds about 30 ml of liquid (like water or more orange juice) to obtain an even more creamy texture.
My Personal Tip:
This beet-orange sorbet is a delight to taste as it is, but if you really want to make it even more surprising, adds a net of honey or a little orange zest to accentuate the freshness. And why not try a few pistachios for a nice color contrast and a little crunch?
This is a daring recipe that is out of the ordinary! The beet-orange sorbet is a perfect wedding between sweet and tangy, with a vibrant color and a super fresh texture thanks to the Ninja Creami. It is the perfect dessert to impress and surprise with something really original and delicious.
