3 stalks fresh lemon grass, outer leaves discarded and root ends trimmed

3 cups water

upper portion. In a saucepan simmer water with lemon grass, covered, 5 minutes.

Add mint and simmer, uncovered, 1 minute. Remove pan from heat and add sugar,

stirring until dissolved. In a blender puree mixture and strain through a fine

sieve into a bowl, pressing hard on solids. Chill syrup, covered, until cold and

freeze in an ice-cream maker. Sorbet may be made 1 week ahead.
