Best Quick And Easy Pressure Cooker Passion Fruit Curd Recipes

QUICK AND EASY PRESSURE COOKER PASSION FRUIT CURD

Steps:

• Put the eggs and sugar in a heatproof bowl and beat together to combine. Scoop the contents of the passion fruit into the bowl along with the butter. Cover the bowl with baking paper or foil.
• Put 3 cm (1 ¼ inch) water in the base of your pressure cooker, then add a trivet. Balance the bowl on top, using foil handles if it is a tight fit and you think it might be tricky to remove. Close the lid and bring up to high pressure.
• Cook for 10 minutes at high pressure, then remove from the heat and allow to drop pressure naturally. Remove the bowl from the cooker, then push the contents through a sieve into a bowl. Whisk until smooth. Leave to cool or immediately transfer to a sterilized jar. Passion fruit curd will keep in the fridge for several weeks.

PASSION FRUIT CURD

Steps:

• Put the passion fruit pulp in a food processor and whizz to separate the seeds from all the juicy bits. Scrape into a sieve set over a medium saucepan, pushing through as much pulp as you can. Reserve 2 tbsp of the seeds, then discard the rest.
• Add the remaining ingredients to the pan and set over a low heat. Whisk until all the butter has melted then, using a wooden spoon, stir constantly until the passion fruit curd has thickened to a similar consistency as lemon curd. Don't be tempted to turn the heat up to speed up the process as the eggs will curdle; make sure you stir right around the edge, too, as this is where it might catch first.
• Sieve the curd into a clean bowl to get rid of any eggy bits that may have curdled. Stir in the reserved seeds and cool, before spooning into jars and chilling. Curd will keep in the fridge for a week. Eat smothered on hot buttered toast, crumpets or scones (see related recipes).

PASSION FRUIT CURD

Steps:

• Combine yolks, passion fruit juice, and sugar in a heavy-bottom saucepan; whisk to combine. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon (be sure to scrape the sides of the pan), until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 8 to 10 minutes, and registers 160 degrees on an instant-read thermometer.
• Remove saucepan from heat. Add salt and butter, one piece at a time, stirring until smooth. Strain through a fine sieve into a medium bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the curd to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate until chilled and set, at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
