Ingredients
- 1 cup passion fruit pulp
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons cold water
Directions
Step 1
Cut ripe passion fruits in half and scoop out the pulp with seeds. Strain the pulp through a fine mesh sieve to collect the juice, discarding the seeds, to make 1 cup.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the passion fruit juice, granulated sugar, 1/4 cup of water, and lemon juice over medium heat. Stir continuously until the sugar has dissolved.
Step 3
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Lower the heat and let it simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water to make a slurry.
Step 5
Slowly whisk the cornstarch slurry into the simmering passion fruit mixture. Continue to stir until the sauce thickens, about 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the sauce to cool slightly. It will continue to thicken as it cools.
Step 7
Transfer the sauce to a clean jar or serving dish and let it cool completely at room temperature or refrigerate for later use.
Step 8
Serve the passion fruit sauce over cakes, ice creams, pancakes, or use it as a glaze for poultry or seafood dishes.
