PASSION FRUIT MOUSSE

Steps:

• Mix the gelatin and water in a small bowl, until the gelatin is hydrated. Microwave for 30 seconds (or heat on a double boiler) for the gelatin to melt. Cool slightly before using.
• Combine the heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, passion fruit pulp and melted gelatin in the blender. Blend for 5 minutes.
• Transfer the mousse to a large serving bowl or to 4 individual glasses. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours to set.
• Top with the passion fruit sauce and serve!
• Combine the fresh passion fruit pulp and the sugar in a saucepan. Cook, over medium low heat, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture starts boiling. Lower the heat and continue cooking for another minute or two, or until it thickens slightly.
• Let the sauce cool to room temperature before using or refrigerating to use later.

PASSIONFRUIT MOUSSE

Steps:

• Beat the heavy cream in a large bowl with an electric mixer at medium-high speed until it holds stiff peaks. Add the condensed milk, passionfruit puree and vanilla and beat until combined. Spoon the mousse into two 10- to 12-ounce bowls. Cover the bowls with plastic wrap and refrigerate until the mousse is firm, at least 2 hours. If you have access to a fresh passionfruit, spoon a little of the fresh fruit on top. The mousse is also delicious with some granola sprinkled on top.

PASSION FRUIT MOUSSE

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.

JOHND'S FANCY PASSION FRUIT MOUSSE

Steps:

• Cut the passion fruits in halves. Remove the pulp and seeds and licuify in your food processer. Save some of the seeds for garnishing.
• Strain the processed pulp. Mix the juice in the food processer with the condensed milk.
• Cut off a small portion of the bottoms of the passion fruit skin halves; enough for them to stand up like small cups. Fill these passion fruit cups with the processed condensed milk mixture.
• Place a red cherry on top of each cup and add as garnish a few passion fruit seeds that you previously saved, as well as a mint leaf (optional).
• Refrigerate for more than 1 hour. (This becomes "cooking time".).

DARK CHOCOLATE, COCONUT & PASSION FRUIT MOUSSE CAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Grease and line two 20cm cake tins with baking parchment - if your cake tins are quite shallow, line the sides to a depth of at least 5cm. Put the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, sugar and 1 tsp salt in a bowl and mix well. If there are any lumps in the sugar, squeeze these through your fingers to break them up.
• Measure the buttermilk, coffee, oil and vanilla in a jug. Add the egg and whisk until smooth. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and whisk until well combined. Pour the cake mixture evenly into the two tins, and bake for 25-30 mins until risen and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Cool in the tins for 10 mins, then turn out onto a wire rack, peel off the baking parchment and leave to cool. These sponges can be made up to three days ahead and will stay moist if wrapped in cling film, or you can wrap well and freeze for up to two months.
• To make the mousse, put the gelatine leaves in a bowl of cold water, one at a time, so they don't stick together. Set aside for 5 mins to soften. Scoop the pulp and seeds from the passion fruit into a sieve suspended over a bowl, and push through the juice - you should have about 100ml. Put 1 tbsp of the seeds in a small bowl and set aside. Save 2 small empty passion fruit halves and discard the rest.
• Pour the coconut cream, passion fruit juice and sugar into a saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer. Remove from the heat and stir in the coconut rum liqueur. Add the gelatine to the hot liquid, a leaf at a time, squeezing out the water before you add them. Stir until the gelatine has dissolved. Fill each reserved passion fruit half with some of the mixture, place in a small dish and chill until needed. Leave the remaining mixture to cool to room temperature. Pour the double cream into a large bowl and whip until it's holding its shape. Add half the passion fruit mixture, fold together, then add the remaining mixture and fold through again.
• Line a deep 20cm cake tin with a double layer of cling film. Slice each sponge in half through the middle and drizzle each layer with 1 tbsp coconut rum liqueur. Place one of the layers into the tin, flat-side down, and spread with a third of the passion fruit mousse - don't worry if a little trickles down the sides. Layer the remaining sponges and mousse on top, finishing with a layer of cake. Cover the top of the cake with cling film and chill for at least 4 hrs, or preferably overnight.
• When the cake has chilled and the mousse is set, turn out onto a cake stand, so the base now becomes the top, and remove the cling film. Using a palette knife, scrape any passion fruit mousse off the edges of the cake, to give it a smooth surface. Place the cake back in the fridge while you prepare the ganache.
• Put the chocolate and cream in a pan and gently heat, stirring now and then, to make a runny chocolate sauce. Leave to firm up at room temperature until it reaches a spreadable consistency.
• Remove the cake from the fridge. Spread the ganache over the top and sides of the cake with a palette knife until completely covered. Decorate with a ring of toasted coconut shavings, if you like. Remove the filled passion fruit shells from the fridge and place these on top too, topped with the reserved passion fruit seeds. Chill until ready to serve, but bring out of the fridge 1 hr before slicing (don't forget to serve the passion fruit jellies to your favourite guests too). Leftovers will keep in the fridge for 2 days.

MARACUJA (PASSION FRUIT MOUSSE TRAYBAKE)

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.
