Preparation Steps
1
Thoroughly wash the strawberries, remove the stems, and purée in a blender until completely smooth.
2
In a medium saucepan, combine the water and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved. This should take about 5 minutes.
3
Let the sugar syrup cool completely, then stir in the strawberry purée and lemon juice.
4
Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the seeds, then pour into a shallow dish.
5
Place the dish in the freezer. Every 30 minutes, scrape the mixture with a fork to create a light and icy texture. Repeat this process 3-4 times, or until the sorbet is completely frozen.
6
Before serving, let the sorbet stand at room temperature for 5 minutes to soften slightly and make it easier to scoop. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and a few strawberry slices.
