Maracuya Passion Fruit Mousse Recipes

Steps:

• Break passion fruits in half, and empty contents into a bowl. Use a little water to help rinse the juice out of the skins. Mix with hands to soften pulp. Strain through a sieve or cheesecloth. Stir in sugar and sweetened condensed milk.
• In a chilled bowl, beat cream until stiff peaks form. Fold 1/3 of the cream into the passion fruit mixture, then quickly fold in remaining cream until no streaks remain. Refrigerate for 1 hour.

Steps:

• For the base, crush the biscuits in a bag with a rolling pin, or pulse in a food processor. Add the butter and stir. Line a 20 x 30cm cake tin with non-stick baking parchment. Tip the biscuit mixture in and firmly press down. Chill.
• Mix the passion fruit flesh with the juice. Place the gelatine in a small bowl of cold water to soak. Pour the flesh and juice into a saucepan and heat until hot. Squeeze the water out of the gelatine, add to the pan and stir until dissolved, then remove and pour into a bowl.
• Add the milk and loosely whipped cream and fold together. Pour into the tin and chill until firm, about 2 hrs.
• For the coulis, purée 1 mango with the lime juice and sugar in a food processor, then stir to dissolve the sugar. Chop up the other mango.
• To serve, cut the traybake into squares. Top each one with the coulis, some chopped mango and passion fruit.

Steps:

• Special Equipment: martini glasses
• Place 1 tablespoon of passion fruit pulp in the bottom of 8 martini glasses or ramekins, totaling in 1/2 cup passion fruit pulp, set them aside.
• Using an electric mixer beat the cream until it holds stiff peaks. Whisk 1 1/4 cups of passion fruit pulp with the condensed milk in a large bowl, add 1/4 of the whipped cream and whisk it in. Fold in the remaining whipped cream and fill martini glasses or ramekins with some mousse. Drizzle some of the remaining passion fruit pulp over the top. Serve immediately or cover flush with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 8 hours. Serve cold with a mint sprig and a biscotti.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, heat the passion fruit puree, orange juice, and sugar until dissolved.
• Add the gelatin to the hot juice and stir to melt and combine. Strain the liquid into a bowl and place it over an ice bath. Stir it constantly with a rubber spatula and when it just starts to set, fold in the whipped cream. Pour this into soup plates or dessert bowls and chill. If storing them overnight, cover them with plastic wrap.
• To serve the mousse, remove the bowls from the refrigerator. Peel and slice the bananas in half longways and dip their faces in coarse sugar and caramelize them under a broiler or with a blowtorch. Place them on the mousse fanning them then tuck in a few half slices of kiwi.

Steps:

• Pour the whipping cream, condensed milk, and passion fruit juice into a blender. Blend on low until light and fluffy, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Pour into a serving bowl or dessert dishes, and refrigerate at least 30 minutes before serving.
