Passion Fruit Curd



So, I'm kind of obsessed with curd now. Get with the program. It's spring, and I'm blitzing all of my fruit to make this amazing little compote. Basically, this means that I have a new ingredient to play with! Breakfast will never be the same.


Breakfast TRANSFORMED!

I’ve decided that fruit curd is the best thing ever. It all started with some amazing pancakes I got for brunch which were served with passion fruit curd.



I started off easy, making the simplest type of curd (lemon). It was super delicious, and very easy. I 
used it on pancakes, and in cakes. The next step was to branch out into passion fruit curd because I found a local place to buy them – would you believe that Tesco’s sells passion fruits?!

The method for this is slightly different from lemon curd, but it produces the same smooth, zesty sweet preserve. Curd is really simple, really versatile and I am very pleased with my little fridge full of jars of homemade deliciousness.
