3/4 cup (Divided into 1/2 cup for syrup and 1/4 cup for egg whites)
salt
1 dash (N/A)

Instructions
1
In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of water, 1/2 cup of sugar, and a dash of salt. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves, then let it simmer for about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow it to cool completely.
2
While the syrup cools, prepare the mangoes by peeling and slicing them. Place the mango pieces and 1/2 cup of light cream into a blender and blend until smooth. Alternatively, you can mash the mangoes with a fork and mix in the cream until well combined.
3
Once the syrup has cooled, stir in the blended mango mixture and the fresh lemon juice until fully incorporated. Break the mixture into two portions and pour them into separate freezer containers. Freeze until the mixture is partially frozen, approximately 1-2 hours. If using one container, it will take longer.
4
Chill a mixing bowl in the refrigerator or freezer. In a separate bowl, beat 2 egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add 1/4 cup of sugar while continuing to beat the mixture until stiff peaks form.
5
Retrieve the partially frozen mango mixture from the freezer. Scrape the contents into the chilled mixing bowl and break it into smaller chunks. Using an electric mixer, beat until the mixture is smooth.
6
Gently fold in the whipped egg whites into the mango mixture until just combined. Transfer the mixture back into the freezer containers and place them in the freezer until firm, usually about 3-4 hours.
7
Once firm, scoop the mango sorbet into bowls and serve immediately. Enjoy your Tropical Mango Sorbet Delight!
