Ingredients
  

  • Unsalted butter softened, for greasing
  • Caster sugar for coating
  • 8 passion fruit
  • 80 g caster sugar plus extra for the base
  • 4 large egg whites
  • Pinch of salt
  • Icing sugar for dusting

Method
 

  1. Butter and sugar-coat ramekins, chill.
  2. Scoop passion fruit pulp, reserve some seeds.
  3. Strain, reduce juice with sugar 4–5 minutes. Cool.
  4. Preheat oven with a tray inside.
  5. Whisk egg whites and salt to soft peaks, add sugar, whisk stiff and glossy.
  6. Fold whites into passion fruit base in stages.
  7. Fill ramekins, level, run thumb around rim.
  8. Bake on hot tray 10–12 minutes.
  9. Dust with icing sugar, scatter reserved seeds, serve immediately.

Notes

Reduce the passion fruit juice properly for concentrated flavour.
Whisk egg whites in a completely clean, dry bowl for the best rise.
Fold gently in stages to preserve the air in the mixture.
Serve immediately — soufflés deflate quickly once out of the oven.
