If you're looking for a dessert that instantly transports you to the tropics, this mango-passion fruit coulis is exactly what you need! It's a perfect blend of the sweet mango and the tangy zing of passion fruit. Perfect for topping ice cream made with Ninja Creami, or even adding to an exotic sorbet.
Ingredients :
- 1 ripe mango
- 4 passion fruits (maracujas)
- 50g of sugar (adjust according to the sweetness of the mango)
- 50 ml of water
- 1 tablespoon of lemon juice (optional, for more acidity)
Preparation :
- Prepare the mango and passion fruit.
Start by peeling the mango and cutting it into small pieces. Then, cut the passion fruit in half and scoop out the pulp with a spoon. If you've never tried this combination, you're going to love this marriage of tropical flavors! - Cooking the coulis
: In a small saucepan, combine the mango pieces, passion fruit pulp, sugar, and water. Heat over medium heat, stirring regularly. Simmer for approximately 10 to 15 minutes, until the mango is very tender and the flavors have blended well. - Blending:
Once cooked, blend everything until smooth. If you prefer a coulis without the passion fruit seeds, you can pass the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve. Personally, I love keeping the seeds for a bit of crunch! - Add lemon juice (optional)
If you like a tangy coulis, add a little lemon juice at the end of cooking to give it an extra little boost. - Let it cool.
Allow the coulis to cool to room temperature before using it to top your ice cream. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator; it will keep well for about a week.
My Personal Tip:
This mango-passion fruit coulis is an absolute treat on vanilla ice cream or yogurt sorbet made with the Ninja Creami. If you want to take it a step further, try swirling this coulis into coconut or lemon ice cream for a delicious contrast between sweet and tangy. You can also use it to enhance crepes or pancakes—a real treat for breakfast!
This tropical coulis adds a touch of the exotic to your frozen creations. With this homemade mango-passion fruit coulis, your Ninja Creami ice creams will be even more indulgent and bursting with flavor!
