Ivan Ramen
With slow-roasted tomatoes

Massoud was an Iranian cook who worked for us at Ivan Ramen for two years. He
has lived in Tokyo for the better part of twenty years, and is effectively Japanese. When I wasn’t in the shop, everyone assumed he was me, because, you know, all foreigners look alike. After a while, we stopped correcting them. Anyway, he came up with this sorbet as a special, and it quickly became a hit. I assure you it doesn’t just taste like frozen tomatoes with sugar.

Makes 1 litre
