Ingredients for Passion fruit Jell-O whip
480 ml passion fruit juice
45 g caster sugar
7 g icing sugar
120 ml double cream
mixed berries, for garnish
mint sprigs, for garnish
How to make Passion fruit Jell-O whip
Chill 240 ml of juice and pour it into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment; set aside.
Pour the remaining 240 ml of juice into a small saucepan, add the sugar, and stir. Heat over medium-high until boiling.
Sprinkle the gelatin over the cold juice in the mixer bowl and let it sit for 1 minute.
Pour the hot juice over the cold juice and stir to combine. Place the bowl in the refrigerator until thickened and beginning to gel, about 1.5 hours. The lightly set juice should still be wobbly; when you tip the bowl slightly, it should cling to the side rather than run up like a liquid.
Remove the bowl from the refrigerator and use a rubber spatula to scrape any gelled juice from the bottom of the bowl.
Attach the bowl to the stand mixer and whisk on medium-high speed until foamy and tripled in size, at least 5–6 minutes. Ensure that all the gelled juice is broken up and liquefied.
Meanwhile, place the cream in a medium-sized bowl and, using an electric hand mixer, beat the cream on medium to medium-high speed until it holds medium peaks, approximately 2–3 minutes.
Fold the whipped cream into the gelatin mixture until fully incorporated. Transfer to 5 small serving vessels.
Refrigerate for 1–2 hours, or until set.
Serve with mixed berries or a sprig or two of mint.
Store any leftover Passion Fruit Whip tightly wrapped in cling film in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
