PASSIONFRUIT SEMI FREDO

For the Ice Cream:

  • 1 cup passion fruit concentrate
  • 10 egg yolks (reserve whites for final presentation)
  • Three fourths cup sugar
  • 3 cups of heavy cream

Combine the passionfruit with the egg yolks and sugar, and cook till thick, stirring constantly over a boiling waterbath as you would prepare a lemon curd.

Scald the heavy cream in a thick bottomed pot and whisk into the hot curd. Return custard to the heavy pot and cook briefly on medium heat until the custard thickens slightly. Pass through a chinois (extremely fine mesh strainer). Chill, churn and harden ice cream at least 24 hours prior to assembly.

For the Cake: Prepare one recipe of a basic genoise to which 1 teaspoon of grated orange zest has been added. Bake the batter on a sheet pan lined with baking parchment paper. Line individual custard cup moulds (heart-shaped if you have them, of course) with plastic film. Cut circles (or hearts) to line the bottom and sides of the cup, fitting tightly. Pack the mould with passion fruit ice cream in the centre and seal with a tightly fitting circle (or heart) on the top. Draw the corners of the plastic around the cup and give a little twist to seal the ice cream in the cake. Return to the freezer until you are ready to serve.

Presentation: Preheat oven to 218 degrees Celsius. A convection oven with low fan setting is ideal. Make a meringue from the reserved egg whites using equal parts sugar. Flavour with 1 teaspoon grated orange zest and vanilla. Remove cake from plastic film and turn bottom side up. Frost top and sides about 4 centimetres thick with meringue, leave base unfrosted. Bake the semi freddo until the meringue is puffed and peaks just start to brown, a matter of minutes.

Serve with Creme Anglaise feathered with hearts drawn with passionfruit and strawberry purees.

Milk

 

2 cups

Put a collar on a 5- to 6-cup soufflé dish. Cut 30-centimetre wide foil so it is 7.5 centimetres longer than the circumference of the dish. Fold foil lengthwise into thirds. Lightly butter and sugar one side of foil, leaving 7.5 centimetres on one end unbuttered. Attach foil, sugared side in, around the outside of the dish so the foil extends about 5 centimetres above the dish, overlapping the unbuttered end on top. Tape to seal. Set aside.

In a small saucepan melt margarine or butter. Stir in flour. Add the fruit puree. Cook and stir constantly till thickened and bubbly. Remove from heat.

In a large mixing bowl beat egg whites and vanilla till soft peaks form (tips curl). Gradually add the 1/3 cup sugar, beating till stiff peaks form (tips stand straight). Fold about 1 cup of the beaten whites into the passion fruit mixture. Fold fruit mixture into remaining whites.

In a medium mixing bowl beat egg yolks till combined. Gradually stir the hot mixture into beaten egg yolks. Set aside.

Transfer the egg mixture to the prepared soufflé dish. Bake in a 176 degrees Celsius oven for 40 to 45 minutes or till a knife inserted near the centre comes out clean.
