My nieces came for lunch on Friday and Alan wanted to do something special for dessert. And nothing says "special" like souffle!
Light, tasty and a lot less finicky than endless sitcoms would have you believe...
Ingredients
3 large eggs - separated
1/2 cup fruit puree (we used mango)
finely shredded zest of one small lime
1 Tbsp fresh lime juice
1/4 cup sugar
Method
Whisk together the egg yolks, zest, fruit puree and lime juice.
In a separate, clean bowl, whisk the egg whites until frothy.
Sprinkle in the sugar and whisk until they're the consistency of shaving cream.
Fold 1/3 of whisked whites into the egg/fruit mixture and then fold in the other 2/3.
Spoon into buttered, sugared ramekins.
*If you want to make them ahead, they can be frozen at this point and then baked just before serving.*
Bake at 400 degrees until they've risen and the tops have turned golden.
Sprinkle with icing sugar and serve.
