Ingredients
  • 2 large Ripe Mangoes
  • 4 Passion Fruit
  • 50 g Caster Sugar
  • 300 ml Double Cream
  • 150 g Greek Yogurt
  • 2 tbsp Toasted Coconut Flakes (for garnish)

Prepare the Mango Puree

Peel and dice the mangoes. Place the diced mangoes in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. If the mango is not sweet enough, add a little caster sugar to taste.

Extract the Passion Fruit Pulp

Cut the passion fruits in half and scoop out the pulp into a small bowl. If desired, strain the pulp through a sieve to remove the seeds (although the seeds are edible and add a nice crunch).

Whip the Cream

In a large bowl, whip the double cream until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.

Fold in the Yogurt and Fruit

Gently fold the Greek yogurt into the whipped cream until combined. Then, gently fold in the mango puree and passion fruit pulp, creating a ripple effect. Avoid overmixing.

Chill and Serve

Spoon the Mango and Passion Fruit Fool into individual serving glasses or bowls. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. Garnish with toasted coconut flakes.
