Method

1.Place 2 shallow metal containers in the freezer to chill.
2.Combine pear, half the water and half the sugar in a medium saucepan. Stir over a low heat for 2-3 minutes until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to medium and bring to the boil. Cook about 5 minutes, until the pear is tender and the syrup thickens. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly. Repeat with remaining water, sugar and raspberries.
3.Place the pear mixture in food processor and process until smooth. Strain through a fine sieve into chilled container. Cover with foil and freeze for 2 hours or until almost set. Repeat with the raspberry mixture.
4.Roughly break up the pear sorbet with a metal spoon and transfer to the bowl of a food processor. Add half the egg white and process until the sorbet reaches a soft texture. Return to the container. Cover with foil and freeze for 4-6 hours, until firm. Repeat with the raspberry mixture and remaining egg white. Serve in scoops with pear slices and raspberries.
