Method

Main

1.For passionfruit semifreddo, whisk egg yolks in an electric mixer for 5-7 minutes or until pale and fluffy. Combine sugar and passionfruit juice in a small saucepan and stir over medium-high heat until sugar dissolves. Simmer for 2-3 minutes or until syrupy, then add to egg yolks, whisking continuously until mixture is cold. Fold in cream and passionfruit pulp, transfer to a container and freeze for 6 hours or overnight until firm. Makes about 750ml.
2.Combine sugar, lemon rind and ½ cup water in a small saucepan and stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves, then bring to the boil and simmer for 3 minutes. Remove from heat, add mint and lemon liqueur and stand until cool, then strain, reserving lemon rind and syrup. Refrigerate until cold. Makes about 1 cup.
3.To serve, combine mango, raspberries and reserved rind in a bowl, drizzle with syrup and toss gently. Serve mango and raspberry salad with scoops of passionfruit semifreddo.
