Time 10h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 small watermelon or piece of a larger one (about 10 pounds)
1/2 cup lime or lemon juice
1/2 cup sugar

Steps:

  • Cut the watermelon into 2-inch wedges. Remove and discard the rind, black seeds and as many of the softer white seeds as possible. Cut the flesh into 1-inch chunks and place in the bowl of a food processor. Process until liquified (some small chunks may remain). There should be about 8 cups.
  • Add the lime juice and sugar to the watermelon puree.
  • Transfer the watermelon mixture to a stainless steel bowl, cover, and freeze until solid, 8 to 10 hours. Three to five hours before serving, move the bowl to the refrigerator to soften the mixture. In the last hour before serving, use a fork to break the softened mixture into shavings. Serve in cold glass goblets or bowls.
