  This simple little Turkish ice can be served as a dessert or as a
  palate-cleansing between-courses Sorbet.  You don't need an ice-cream
  machine to make it.
  
  In a saucepan, make a syrup with 2 cups water and 1 cup sugar.  Stir
  over heat until the sugar dissolves, then add the juice of half a
  lemon and boil the syrup vigorously for 5 minutes.  Set aside to cool.
  
  In a food processor, puree 3 punnets of hulled, strawberries with
  quarter of a cup of milk and a couple of drops of red food colouring.
  Combine puree with the syrup and pour into a narrow rectangular cake
  tin or a freezer tray and freeze.
  
  To serve, break up the strawberry ice with a fork and spoon it into
  chilled dishes or glasses.  Serve immediately.
  
  Makes 6 servings.
