Instructions

Step 1

Prepare the Gelatin

Begin by soaking the gelatin in cold water. This step is crucial as it allows the gelatin to properly hydrate, so don’t skip it.

Step 2

Cook the Fruit Mixture

In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the mango puree, passion fruit puree, erythritol, Jerusalem artichoke syrup, and corn starch. Turn the heat to low and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring continuously. You will notice the mixture starting to thicken.

Once thickened, remove it from the heat and quickly stir in the soaked gelatin until fully dissolved. Allow this mixture to cool down to about 35-40 degrees Celsius (95-104 degrees Fahrenheit).

Step 3

Whip the Cream

In a separate bowl, whip the cream until you reach soft peaks. This will add a light and airy texture to your mousse, which is essential.

Carefully fold the whipped cream into the fruit and gelatin mixture until well combined. Be gentle to maintain the airiness of the cream.

Step 4

Assemble the Dessert

Now, it’s time to create your dessert. You can layer this mousse in dessert cups or serve it as a filling in a cake. If desired, add berries and pieces of fresh fruit for extra flavor and presentation.

Enjoy your delicious mango mousse as a delightful treat for any occasion!

Servings

Serve your luscious Mango Mousse in elegant glass cups or bowls. They not only showcase the vibrant colors but also add a touch of sophistication to your dessert table. 🍹 Add Fresh Fruits like sliced strawberries or a sprig of mint on top for that extra pop of color and flavor. Consider pairing it with a light biscuit or sponge cake to give a delightful contrast in textures. A drizzle of passion fruit syrup on top could also elevate the taste, creating a beautiful effect! 🍓

Equipment

Double Boiler or Saucepan

To gently heat the fruit purees without burning them, a double boiler or a heavy-bottomed saucepan works best.
