Oranges with passionfruit custard

This delightful dessert combines the zesty freshness of oranges with the exotic allure of passion fruit, all enveloped in a creamy, vanilla-infused custard. It's a perfect way to end a meal, offering a balance of sweetness and tanginess that will tantalize your taste buds.

Ingredients:

3 oranges
450g
2 tbsp vanilla extract
30g
2 tbsp sugar
30g
1.50 cups milk (1% fat)
360g
1/2 cup passion fruit
120g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Oranges:
- Peel the oranges and remove any seeds.
- Segment the oranges by cutting away the pith and membrane. Place the segments in a bowl and set aside.
2. Make the Custard:
- In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, 2 tablespoons of vanilla extract, and sugar. Stir to mix well.
- Heat the mixture over medium heat. Stir continuously to prevent the milk from scorching. Do not let it come to a boil.
- Once the milk mixture is heated and the sugar has dissolved, slowly add the passionfruit pulp while stirring continuously.
- Continue to cook the mixture over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until it thickens into a custard-like consistency. This may take about 5-8 minutes.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the remaining 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
3. Cool the Custard:
- Allow the custard to cool for a few minutes at room temperature.
- Transfer the custard to a bowl or container and place it in the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes, or until it is fully cooled and set.
4. Assemble the Dish:
- Distribute the orange segments evenly into individual serving bowls or plates.
- Spoon the chilled passionfruit custard over the orange segments.
5. Serve:
- Serve immediately, or refrigerate until you are ready to serve. Enjoy this refreshing dessert as a light and fruity end to your meal!

Tips:

- Choose ripe and juicy oranges for the best flavor.

- When selecting passion fruits, look for fruits that are slightly wrinkled but heavy for their size, as they tend to be juiciest.

- Make sure to whisk the custard mixture continuously while cooking to prevent it from curdling.

- Allow the custard to cool slightly before pouring over the oranges to ensure a smooth consistency.

- Chill the dessert in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving for the best texture and flavor.

With its vibrant colors and refreshing flavors, Oranges with Passionfruit Custard is a dessert that is sure to impress. Follow these simple steps and tips to create a luscious treat that brings a touch of summer to your table, any time of the year.
