Feeling in the mood for some deliciously decadent passion-fruit butter to fill some homemade shortbread tarts I raided my freezer for a bag of pulp and set to work making a small batch of 'crowd pleasing' passion-fruit butter....
Here's the Recipe.....
Ingredients - 10 passion-fruit (pulped), 1 & 1/2 cups of white sugar, 3 eggs (lightly beaten), 180g butter.
Method - Combine all ingredients in a saucepan and whisk over a very low heat until the mixture thickens and resembles honey. Do not allow the mixture to boil or it will curdle and you'll have something that looks more like 'scrambled' eggs, not honey.
Pour the mixture into sterilised jars and seal immediately. Keep in the fridge for up to 4 weeks.
This is delicious spread on toast or my favorite way to eat it is spooned into pastry cases and topped with freshly whipped cream - YUM-MO!!!!
Also, when scanning through the books on Sale at my favorite on-line book store last week I came across this little gem....
Having heard great things of this Author I quickly snapped this book up and now that its arrived I am so pleased that I did.....
