METHOD
Passion Fruit base
- Whisk Passion fruit puree, caster sugar and cornflour in a saucepan over a medium heat and slowly bring to boil, to ensure there are no lumps.
- Reduce the heat to low and cook, whisking continuously for 5 minutes, or until thick.
- Pour into a large bowl and cover with cling wrap to contact with the puree. Allow to cool at room temperature.
For the Soufflè
- Place the egg whites into a mixer with a whisk attachment and whisk on a medium speed. When the whites begin to foam, gradually add the sugar until the meringue have soft peaks form.
- Add a quarter of the meringue to the Passion fruit base and whisk together to combine.
- Gently fold the remaining meringue with a spatula.
Before Bake
- Preheat oven to 200°C, 50% humidity (in a static oven place a bowl with water inside to create steam).
- Grease the ramekins or copper pots with butter and dust with caster sugar. Shake off any excess.
- Fill the ramekins/pots with the soufflé mixture and use a palette knife to smooth the tops.
- Gently run your finger around the rim of soufflés to stop the edges from sticking during the cooking.
- Bake the Soufflés for 10-12 minutes in ramekins or 7-8 minutes in copper pots until risen and slightly golden.
- Dust the top with icing sugar.
Passion fruit coulis
- Warm up on a medium heat the passion fruit juice, icing sugar and passion fruit pulp until well combine.
- Blend slightly with a hand mixer until smooth.
- Cool down before serve
To serve

Enjoy the Soufflé with a scoop of Vanilla Ice-Cream on the side.
Eat the Soufflé warm within the first 5 minutes after baking.
Enjoy!
