METHOD

Using parchment paper or a Silpat, line a large baking sheet. Combine sugar and water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a gentle boil, swirling the pan occasionally to mix, and cook for about 7 minutes, or until golden. Remove the cashews from the heat. Lift out 1-inch clusters (about 3 to 4 cashews) with two forks and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Allow to cool completely.

Transfer the cashew clusters to a cutting board and roughly chop with a sharp knife once they have cooled and hardened. Place in the freezer.

To serve, place a scoop of coconut sorbet on a plate and top with a spoonful of cashew brittle.
