This really isn't a side dish. I serve it at my dinner parties between the fish course, and the main course as a nice palette cleanser. It's got a great hot, sour taste.
Ingredients:
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 lime, zested
3 cups water
2 jalapenos, seeded and chopped
2/3 cup fresh lime juice
2 egg whites
1/4 cup sugar
Directions:
1. Combine the sugar, corn syrup, lime zest and water in a saucepan; bring to a boil for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, then add the jalapenos and lime juice. Cool to room temperature.
2. Strain the mixture into a shallow metal pan. Freeze 2 hours or until firm.
3. Place a stainless steel mixer bowl in the freezer.
4. Beat the egg whites in another mixer bowl until foamy. Add 1/4 cup sugar gradually and beat until soft peaks form.
5. Scrap the chilled lime mixture into the chilled bowl. Whip with a fork until broken, but not slushy. Gently fold in 1/3 of the egg whites, when incorporated, fold in the remaining whites.
6. Spoon into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufactures directions.
