Passion fruit cremeux
230g Passion fruit puree Adamance
137g Sugar
30g Cornstarch
15g Olive oil
125g Passion inspiration
25g Cocoa butter
70g Coconut cream, fat only
Mix sugar and cornstarch together. In a saucepan bring a passion fruit puree, olive oil, sugar and cornstarch to a boil. Stirring constantly until it has thickened and cornstarch has cooked out, about 2 minutes.
Pour over the passion inspiration and cocoa butter, birr mix and emulsify completely.
Whip coconut fat until it's very smooth and no lumps, pass through a strainer.
Fold into set passionfruit cremeux. Keep chilled.
Passion fruit gel
In a sauce pan add all ingredients together.
Using a whisk and on medium high heat keep stirring until it has boiled for at least a minute.
Put into a container and refrigerate. Once set, break up the gel to mix on high in a blender. Making sure to scrape the sides so it's evenly mixed until completely smooth and ‘fluid’.
Passion fruit glass
Passion fruit gel
Uusing a lightly sprayed silicone mat that's been gently wiped with a towel spread the passion gel to fit ¾ of the mat so it fits into the dehydrator. Making sure it's even and not too thin or too thick. Dehydrate the gel on 120F (49C) for at least 24 hrs until it is crisp. To store, release from the mat gently and break into pieces that’ll fit into a 2 qt. container that has a couple desiccant packets at the bottom. Making sure to line each layer of the glass with wax paper to prevent the glass from sticking together.
Assembly and finishing
- Make a quenelle with the passion fruit cremeux and place it at the center of the plate
- Take the backside of the quenelle spoon to create a divet for 4 pieces of lemon olive oil cake to sit in
- With the passion fruit gel, pipe 5 dots of different sizes around and on the cake pieces
- Drizzle about 1 tsp of extra virgin olive oil around the cremeux
- Place 3 medium to large pieces of passionfruit glass on top of cake
- Finish with zesting some lemon on top of the dessert and edible flower petals
