Ingredients
6 passion fruits
2 tablespoons sugar
4 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons sugar
4 tablespoons water
Where to find ingredients
You can find fresh passion fruits at local produce markets or greengrocers. If fresh fruit is unavailable, high-quality frozen pulp can be used as a substitute, though adjust the sugar accordingly as frozen options may be pre-sweetened.
Preparation method
- Slice the passion fruits in half.
- Scoop out all the pulp and seeds, transferring them into a saucepan.
- Add the sugar and water to the pan with the fruit pulp.
- Place over medium heat until the sugar has fully dissolved.
- To achieve a thicker texture, bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
- Reduce the heat intensity.
- Continue cooking and stirring occasionally until the sauce reaches your preferred consistency.
Observations
This purée is a fantastic choice for pairing with desserts or dishes that require a bright, citrusy, and refreshing lift. The method is straightforward, focusing on reducing the fruit pulp until the desired silky consistency is achieved.
