Quick And Easy Pressure Cooker Passion Fruit Curd Recipes

QUICK AND EASY PRESSURE COOKER PASSION FRUIT CURD

Steps:

• Put the eggs and sugar in a heatproof bowl and beat together to combine. Scoop the contents of the passion fruit into the bowl along with the butter. Cover the bowl with baking paper or foil.
• Put 3 cm (1 ¼ inch) water in the base of your pressure cooker, then add a trivet. Balance the bowl on top, using foil handles if it is a tight fit and you think it might be tricky to remove. Close the lid and bring up to high pressure.
• Cook for 10 minutes at high pressure, then remove from the heat and allow to drop pressure naturally. Remove the bowl from the cooker, then push the contents through a sieve into a bowl. Whisk until smooth. Leave to cool or immediately transfer to a sterilized jar. Passion fruit curd will keep in the fridge for several weeks.

INSTANT POT BOLOGNESE

Steps:

• Set pressure cooker to medium heat or "Sauté," then heat oil and butter, stirring to combine. Add pancetta and cook, stirring often, until starting to crisp, about 10 minutes. Add onion, carrot, celery, and garlic and cook, stirring, until onion is softened, 8-10 minutes. Add ground beef and ground pork and cook, stirring often, until meat is fully cooked, 8-10 minutes.
• Carefully lift insert out of pressure cooker with a potholder and strain through a fine-mesh sieve set over a medium bowl. Return meat mixture to cooker insert; discard fat. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in tomato paste and cook, stirring, about 2 minutes. Pour in wine and cook until reduced by half. Stir in stock, milk, and bay leaves. Lock on lid, making sure steam-release valve is in the proper sealed position. Select "Manual" and program for 10 minutes at high pressure (it will take about 5 minutes for the pressure to build before cooking automatically begins).
• As soon as the time has elapsed, let pressure release naturally (this will take about 15 minutes). Unlock lid and stir in cream. Continue to cook, stirring often, until sauce is thick, 10-15 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Drain.
• Divide pasta among bowls. Spoon sauce over, then top with Parmesan.

EASY LEMON AND PASSION FRUIT CURD

Steps:

• Put the lemon zest, juice, butter and sugar in a pan and heat gently, stirring until the sugar dissolves. take off the heat and allow to cool slightly.
• Stir in the eggs then heat gently, stirring CONTINUOSLY until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of the spoon. Do not allow the mixture to overheat as it will split and curdle. Remove from the heat.
• Cut the passion fruit in half, scoop out the pulp and stir into the lemon curd.
• Spoon the curd into 3 or 4 small sterilised jars, allow to cool before sealing. Store in the fridge and use within 1 month.

PASSION FRUIT TART

Steps:

• Put the passion fruit mix together the day before you wish to bake the tart (resting it in the refrigerator helps avoid splitting). Break the eggs into a bowl and whisk. Add the sugar and continue to whisk until well incorporated. While stirring gently, pour in the cream. Add the passion fruit juice and continue to stir until well blended. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
• Spray a 26 cm (10-inch) tart tin with Pure and Simple (vegetable cooking spray).
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pastry to an 11-inch round. Roll the pastry over your rolling pin and gently ease into the tart case, pushing the sides in gently so that it takes the fluting. Rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line the tart case with foil, place rice in the foil and bake blind for 20 minutes. Remove the rice and foil, brush the tart shell with egg wash and cook for a further 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and lower the temperature to 140°C (290°F). Return the tart case to the oven.
• With the case sitting in the oven, carefully pour in the passion fruit custard. Fill the tart right to the top. Bake for 40 minutes.
• Check - the tart should be halfway set but still be quite wobbly in the middle. If you take it out too soon it will not set and will run when you cut it; if you leave it in too long it will set too firmly and lose its elegance. Through experience you'll find the optimum set for the tart in your oven.
• Remove the tart from the oven, balance on a cup and remove the sides. Put on a cake rack and, with a palette knife, slide the base off the tart tin. This will allow the tart to cool and the pastry to crisp up rather than sweat. Invert the pastry ring back onto the tart to help hold the sides in as it cools and sets. Allow to cool for 1 hour. Carefully cut with a serrated knife and place in the middle of large white plates. Dust with confectioner's sugar and serve.
