Chop the mint leaves very finely, then put into a blender with the sugar.
Blend until well mixed. Stir the sugar and mint mixture into the creme
fraiche. Fold in the egg whites. Put into a freezer container and freeze
for at least 4 hours.
Creme fraiche is a lightly cultured cream with a consistency between sour
(soured) cream and heavy (double) cream. If unavailable, you can
substitute two parts heavy cream mixed with one part sour cream; leave in a
warm room for 5 - 6 hours until thickened, then stir, cover and
refrigerate.
Recipe is from _Alfresco_ by Linda Burgess and Rosamond Richardson.
