Hot passionfruit souffles

Passionfruit is the perfect flavour for these little hot souffles, sweet but tart and with the added bit of crunch from the seeds for texture.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon caster sugar

4 eggs, separated

1/2 cup (125ml) passionfruit pulp

1 teaspoon finely grated lemon rind

1/2 cup (80g) icing sugar mixture

Method

1.Pre-heat oven to 200°C. Grease six ovenproof souffle dishes (3/4-cup capacity). Sprinkle the bases and sides evenly with the caster sugar; shake away the excess. Place dishes on an oven tray.

2.Whisk 2 egg yolks (reserve remainder for another use) with passionfruit, rind and 2tbsp of the sifted icing sugar until combined.

3.Beat egg whites in a small bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Add remaining sifted icing sugar and continue beating until firm peaks form.

4.Fold a quarter of egg whites mixture into the passionfruit mixture, then gently fold in the remaining egg white mixture.

5.Spoon into prepared dishes and bake in a moderately hot oven, about 10 minutes, or until the souffles are well risen and browned. Dust the tops with extra sifted icing sugar, if desired.
