Serves 6-8

• 150g chopped seedless watermelon
• ½ cup caster sugar
• ½ cup vanilla-flavoured yoghurt
• ½ cup double cream, whipped
• 1 cup icing sugar, sifted
• 2 tsp rosewater
• 2 cups vanilla-flavoured yoghurt, extra
• 2 cups thick cream, extra


1. Place the watermelon in a blender and process until smooth. Place in a medium saucepan with the sugar over low heat and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes or until sugar is dissolved. Allow to cool.

2. Place the watermelon mixture in a bowl with the yoghurt and whisk to combine. Fold through the whipped cream.

3. Place the icing sugar, rosewater, extra yoghurt and extra cream in a separate bowl and whisk to combine.

4. Spoon the rosewater yoghurt into a metal tin and spoon over watermelon yoghurt. Use a knife to create a swirl. Freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight.
