Ingredients
6 passion fruits
2 tablespoons caster sugar
4 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons caster sugar
4 tablespoons water
Where to find ingredients
You can find fresh passion fruit at most local wet markets or major supermarket chains like NTUC FairPrice, Cold Storage, and Sheng Siong. Look for fruits with slightly wrinkled skin, as they tend to be sweeter and juicier. For the sugar, any standard white caster sugar available in the baking aisle works perfectly.
Preparation method
- Slice the passion fruits in half
- Scoop out all the pulp and seeds into a small saucepan
- Stir in the sugar and water
- Heat over the stove until the sugar has completely dissolved
- Allow the mixture to come to a gentle simmer for a thicker texture
- Turn down the heat to a low setting
- Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce reaches your desired consistency
Observations

It’s incredibly easy to make, focusing on reducing the fresh pulp until it reaches a thick, glossy consistency that packs a punch of refreshing flavour.
