The corossol (soursop in English) is the spiky green fruit of Annona muricata. The flesh is creamy with a slightly sour flavour and it is much loved in Senegal. The fruit is made into preserves, drinks and even ice creams

Ingredients:

1kg soursop fruit (corossol)
120ml water
4 tbsp sugar, or to taste
250ml cream
curls of lemon zest, to garnish
coconut chips, to garnish

Method:

Peel the soursop then roughly mash the flesh and remove the seeds. Scoop the remaining flesh into a food processor, add the sugar and water then pulse and then process the mixture until stiff.

Slowly work in the cream and pulse until combined. Scrape the fruit mixture into a bowl, cover with clingfilm (plastic wrap) and chill in the refrigerator for at last 90 minutes.

Spoon the resultant cream into dessert glasses or sherbet glasses. Garnish with the lemon curls and the coconut chips then serve.
