Frozen shaved fruit ice

1
Easy
10 minutes, plus overnight freezing time

August 2023 was the month of freezing fruit and grating it on TikTok. Peaches, strawberries, plums – every fruit you can think of was frozen. We tested the trend with blood oranges and can confirm it’s delicious and tastes just like sorbet. We did have a few warnings: 1) your hands will get VERY cold, and 2) it melts very quickly. So don’t plan to make this for a dinner party – one portion is probably all you’ll manage before your fingers freeze!

Ingredients
@wwtaste We tested the viral shaved frozen fruit trend with blood oranges - and can confirm: this one is a winner! Only caveat: you’re probably only going to want to make one portion because your hands will freeze! Also it melts super fast, so by the time you’ve made a second bowl, the first will have melted. Still, a delicious, super fresh sweet treat. Also, heads up: blood oranges are on shelf at @Woolworths SA right now for a super short window - dont walk, run! #shavedfruit #frozenshavedfruit #bloodoranges #easyrecipes #trendingrecipes ♬ original sound - WWTaste

1 Peel the orange and place into a container or Ziploc bag in the freezer. Freeze overnight, or for at least 6 hours, or until completely frozen.

2 Place the yoghurt in a bowl. Using a Microplane or fine grater, shave the frozen fruit onto the yoghurt. Drizzle over the honey and sprinkle over the nuts and herbs. Serve immediately – before it melts!
