Lazy Lemon Sorbet Recipe

Having just made Limoncello you now have 6 naked lemons. What are you going to do with them?
This is a very simple lemon sorbet recipe - I can never be bothered boiling zest and adding eggs etc. Call me lazy.

200g Sugar
200ml Water
Juice of 6 lemons

Mix the sugar and water in a pan and heat until it boils then turn off heat.
Add the lemon juice
Cool a bit and put in to ice cream maker (if you have one you freeze in the freezer rather than providing it's own chill you will need to cool in the fridge until it is cold otherwise the icecream maker runs out of grunt before the sorbet is frozen)
You can also make without a icecream maker by putting in a bowl in the freezer and taking out periodically and stirring (I have never been diligent enough for this to work as I usually end up with a solid block of fruity flavoured ice rather than icecream)
