Ingredients
- 1 cup passion fruit pulp
- 0.5 cup water
- 2 tablespoons granular erythritol sweetener
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons cold water
Directions
Step 1
Cut each passion fruit in half and scoop the pulp into a bowl. Discard the empty shells.
Step 2
Strain the pulp through a sieve to separate the seeds from the juice. Use a spoon to press down on the seeds to extract as much juice as possible. Collect 1 cup of juice and pulp.
Step 3
In a small saucepan, combine the passion fruit pulp and juice with 0.5 cup of water over medium heat.
Step 4
Add the erythritol sweetener and stir until it is fully dissolved.
Step 5
Add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice to the mixture and stir gently.
Step 6
In a separate small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water until smooth to create a cornstarch slurry.
Step 7
Slowly pour the cornstarch slurry into the passion fruit mixture, stirring constantly to prevent clumping.
Step 8
Continue to cook the sauce over medium heat, stirring continuously until it thickens and reaches your desired consistency. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Step 9
Once thickened, remove from heat and let the sauce cool to room temperature.
Step 10
Transfer the sauce to a jar or an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to use, or serve immediately over your favorite dishes.
