A Simple List of Ingredients:
1. Fresh Watermelon
2. Icing Sugar
3. Lemon Juice
Bismillah, let's begin!
To begin, take 2 pounds fresh watermelon chunks.
Place the chunks into a food processor.
Puree until smooth.
If you want a smooth granita, without the seeds, sieve the mixture into a bowl.
Pour the mixture into a freezer-proof bowl.
Next, take icing sugar and lemon juice.
Add 1 tablespoon icing sugar, and 1 and 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice.
Stir to combine, and then freeze, stirring occasionally, for 5 hours.
When you want to serve, remove the frozen granita from the freezer, and allow to defrost slightly.
Scrape the granita into a slush like consistency, with a fork.
Serve immediately, with more fresh watermelon slices, if you wish, for a refreshing treat.
Wasalaam!
