Citrus frozen yoghurt trio

This Citrus Frozen Yoghurt Trio is a refreshing and delightful dessert that combines the tangy flavors of lime, lemon, and orange. Perfect for hot summer days or as a light after-dinner treat, this frozen yoghurt recipe is simple to make and packed with zesty goodness. The Greek yogurt provides a creamy base while the citrus elements add a burst of freshness.

Ingredients:

2/3 cup sugar
130g
1 tsp gelatin powder
5g
2 cups greek yogurt
460g
1 tbsp lime zest
16g
1 tbsp lime juice
16g
2 tbsp lemon zest
30g
1 tbsp lemon juice
5g
2 tbsp orange zest
30g
1 tbsp orange juice
16g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Gelatin Mixture:
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup of water and the gelatin powder (5g). Let it sit for about 5 minutes to allow the gelatin to bloom.
2. Dissolve the Sugar:
- Add the sugar (130g) to the gelatin mixture and heat over low heat, stirring constantly until the sugar and gelatin have fully dissolved. Set aside to cool slightly.
3. Combine Yogurt and Zests:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt (460g) with the lime zest (16g), lemon zest (30g), and orange zest (30g) until well combined and smooth.
4. Add Citrus Juices:
- Pour in the lime juice (16g), lemon juice (5g), and orange juice (16g) into the yogurt mixture. Whisk until fully combined.
5. Incorporate Gelatin Mixture:
- Slowly pour the cooled gelatin mixture into the yogurt and citrus mixture. Stir continuously to make sure it is well incorporated.
6. Chill the Mixture:
- Transfer the mixture to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least an hour, or until well chilled.
7. Freeze the Mixture:
- Once chilled, transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions (this usually takes about 20-25 minutes). If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a shallow container and freeze, stirring every 30 minutes until it reaches your desired consistency.
8. Serve:
- Once churned, transfer the frozen yogurt to a storage container and freeze for an additional 2-4 hours or until firm. Scoop into bowls or cones and serve!

Tips:

- Ensure your Greek yogurt is well-chilled before mixing to speed up the freezing process.

- Use a fine grater for the citrus zest to get a finer texture and more intense flavor.

- Soak the gelatin in a small amount of water before adding it to the sugar to prevent clumping.

- Consider using an ice cream maker for a smoother texture, but it's not essential.

- Store any leftovers in an airtight container to prevent the yoghurt from developing ice crystals.

- For a fun presentation, serve in hollowed-out citrus shells.

With just a few simple steps and ingredients, you can create a delicious and refreshing Citrus Frozen Yoghurt Trio that will impress your family and friends. The vibrant citrus flavors combined with creamy Greek yogurt make this dessert a perfect balance of tart and sweet. Enjoy this delightful treat on a warm day or anytime you need a citrusy pick-me-up.
