Where to find ingredients
You can find condensed milk and table cream in major local supermarkets. Fresh passion fruit is widely available in local markets and produce shops. For the concentrated juice, you can use high-quality bottled juice or extract it from fresh fruit as a substitute if the concentrated version is not available.
Preparation method
- In a blender, add the condensed milk, table cream, and concentrated passion fruit juice.
- Blend until you obtain a smooth and creamy mixture.
- Transfer the mixture to a serving dish or individual dessert cups.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until well set.
- If you wish to speed up the process, you may place it in the freezer for about 30 to 40 minutes.
- While the mousse chills, prepare the syrup: in a saucepan, combine the sugar and water.
- Place over medium heat and cook until the sugar dissolves and the syrup reaches a thin thread consistency.
- Add the passion fruit pulp to the syrup, stirring gently.
- Cook for another 1 or 2 minutes, just enough to heat through and integrate the flavors.
- Remove from the heat.
- Once the mousse is firm, pour the passion fruit syrup over the top before serving.
