Ingredients
1 leaf gelatine
12 ripe passion fruits
70g Asda White Chocolate (for baking)
3 medium egg whites
75g caster sugar
1 vanilla pod, split and seeds scraped out
2tbsp Asda Fat Free Greek Style Yogurt, at room temperature
20g macadamia nuts, chopped
125g raspberries
Method
1To make the passion fruit mixture, soak the gelatine in a bowl of water for 5 mins.
2Halve the passion fruits then scoop the pulp into a small pan. Bring to a simmer over a low heat.
3Squeeze any excess water out of the gelatine and add to the pan. Heat gently until dissolved, then divide half the passion fruit mixture between 8 glasses.
4To make the mousse, put the white chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water for 5 mins until melted. Remove the bowl from the heat and allow to cool slightly.
5Meanwhile, whisk the egg whites until they form stiff peaks, then whisk in 1tbsp of the caster sugar and the vanilla seeds. Using a large metal spoon, fold in the white chocolate and yogurt.
6Divide half the mousse between the glasses. Top with the remaining passion fruit mixture and then the remaining mousse. Chill in the fridge for 2 hrs to set.
7For the brittle, dry fry the macadamia nuts over a low heat for 4 mins to lightly toast. Scatter on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
8Put the remaining caster sugar and 1tbsp water in a pan and heat gently until the sugar dissolves. Turn up the heat and simmer until it turns golden. Carefully pour over the nuts to cover, then set aside to cool and harden. When fully cooled, break into pieces.
9Once the mousse is set, top each glass with a few raspberries. Decorate with shards of macadamia brittle just before serving.
