I recently bought one of these machines but the users guide only has about 4 recipes for ice-cream and 4 for sorbets and the instructions for making them are dreadful. Does anyone have a lemon or grapefruit sorbet recipe that you make in these machines! Also some unusual ice cream recipes - like beetroot, pumpkin or zucchini! Thanks.

We made fennel icecream the other day - it uses 12 egg yolks though so unless you have chickens (we do) it can be quite expensive

Thanks, but 12 egg yolks - you're right - no fennel ice cream for us.

I buy trays of 30 free range eggs for $6-10. Twelve eggs does not seem expensive to me. Also, the whites can be used to make omelettes and other things, so that works out even more economical.

Use the yolks for ice cream , and whites for a pav or macaroon cookies or meringues :P

Nigella Lawson has a heap of ice-cream recipes that can all need an ice-cream maker - check out her website, or her book Forever Summer has an absolutely delicious selection (just be careful that the quantity of mixture is not bigger than your machine can handle and scale accordingly).There's a fabulous Margarita one.
