- Place the water and sugar into a medium saucepan; stir over heat, without boiling, until sugar dissolves. Bring to the boil; reduce heat to low and simmer, without stirring, for 8-10 minutes or until slightly thickened but not coloured. Remove from the heat and cool to room temperature.
- Meanwhile, process honeydew in a food processor until smooth. Strain into a shallow stainless steel bowl. Repeat process with rockmelon and watermelon in clean food processor, straining into separate bowls. Stir one third of the sugar syrup into each bowl.
- Cover each fruit mixture with foil and freeze for 3 hours or until almost set. Chop each fruit mixture coarsely with a knife. Process each fruit mixture, separately, with one egg white until smooth. Return each mixture to each bowl.
- Cover and freeze for 3 hours or until firm. Serve scoops of sorbets in glass dishes.
