Lime and pine granita with coconut ice-cream

To make granita, combine caster sugar, palm sugar and water in a small saucepan over a low heat. Stir until sugar dissolves and mixture comes to the boil. Add 1⁄2 of the shredded lime leaf, stir to combine, then remove from heat. Cool slightly. Add pineapple juice and lime juice. Pour into a wide shallow container, cover and freeze for 4-6 hours or until set. 

Meanwhile, put pineapple in a food processor and process until a fine puree forms. Transfer to a bowl, cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or until chilled.

Meanwhile, put a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add coconut and toss until golden. Transfer to a large bowl to cool.

Put 6 wide glasses in freezer to chill. Line an oven tray with baking paper. Roll scoops of ice-cream in cooled coconut until well coated. Put ice-cream on prepared tray and put in freezer for 1 hour or until firm.

Spoon pineapple puree into chilled glasses. Remove granita from freezer and scrape with a fork until crystals form. Spoon granita over puree, then top with coconut ice-cream and scatter with remaining lime leaf. Serve.
