‘Rather than icing sugar, you can also dust the soufflés with cocoa; chocolate and passion fruit are a match made in heaven,' says chef Tristan Welch

Ingredients

  • 500ml orange and passion fruit drink (we used 2 cans of J20)
  • 10g cornflour
  • 25g butter, melted
  • 60g egg whites (about 2 medium)
  • 30g caster sugar, plus extra to coat
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
To serve
  • icing sugar or cocoa powder, to dust
  • 1 passion fruit, halved

Step by step

Get ahead
Prep to the end of step 3 a few hours ahead. Get your whisk, bowls and egg whites ready, too.
  1. Chill two 220ml ramekins (about 9cm diameter x 5.5cm deep).
  2. Add the passion fruit drink to a saucepan and reduce until you have 175ml; this will take 15-20 minutes. Remove from the heat. Mix the cornflour with 1 tablespoon of cold water then whisk into the hot passion fruit drink. Return to the heat and simmer for 2 minutes until thickened. Weigh out 120g in a mixing bowl, cover and set aside.
  3. Brush the chilled ramekins with melted butter twice, then coat the buttered surface with caster sugar, tipping out the excess. Chill again until required.
  4. When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 200°C, fan 180°C, gas 6. Whisk the egg whites to soft peaks. Add the sugar a little at a time and continue to whisk until it’s all incorporated and the mixture is glossy with stiff peaks. Whisk in the lemon juice then take a quarter of the meringued whites and mix into the passion fruit base.
  5. Using a spatula, gently fold in the remaining egg whites and spoon into the prepared ramekins. Flatten the tops with the back of a knife.
  6. Place on a baking tray and bake for 10 minutes or until risen by 2-3cm. Using a tea strainer or small sieve, dust the top of each soufflé with icing sugar or cocoa and scoop the passion fruit seeds over the top. Serve immediately.
