Preparation Steps
1
Extract the juice from the passion fruit to obtain fresh passion fruit juice.
2
Whisk the egg yolks with the powdered sugar until you have a pale, frothy cream.
3
In a small saucepan, heat the passion fruit juice over medium heat. When it starts to simmer, pour it into the egg mixture, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
4
Return the passion fruit-egg mixture to the stovetop and stir continuously until the mixture thickens slightly and becomes creamy.
5
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip it, you want to achieve a creamy consistency.
6
Gently fold the whipped cream into the passion fruit-egg mixture. Using a spatula, be careful not to deflate the cream, preserving its light texture.
7
Pour the mixture into a dish or a silicone mold, then place it in the freezer. Let it freeze for at least 4-6 hours, but the flavors will meld even better if you let it sit overnight.
8
5 minutes before serving, remove the parfait from the freezer to make it easier to slice. Dip a knife in warm water for clean cuts.
