  Very heavy on the egg yolks, but oh a dream dessert. Made this for a dinner party, and it went very quickly! Easy to make, and worth the effort.

  I was just wondering if I could use another fruit other than passion fruit? Like mangoes or pineapple?

  you certainly could, for mango I would suggest you puree a whole mango then measure out 200ml of the pulp. Hope this helps Bx

  Hey Barney thanks for the help but I forgot to check this page again before I went ahead and made it! I used pineapple pulp in the end (because mangoes just seemed too expensive lol) and it came out absolutely amazing. Would recommend to everyone! It's lovely and sweet and tangy, and the custard is a little meringue-like. I've even been asked to make it again and gladly will. For someone who struggles with custard tarts (numerous disastrous attempts) this is just so easy! :)

  I first made this for my then boyfriend. He absolutely loved it, and reader, I married him. I've made it a few times since and always just use the spare egg whites to make meringues.

  This was amazing!!!! Seriously. I used a ready made asda special pastry case as i had guests, but you could use the regular pastry case for 59p to make it cheaper. As i didnt have a hand blender i used 10 passionfruits and pushed them through a sieve with the pestle for a pestle and mortor. I six friends for dinner and they all loved it. I didnt caramalise the top but next time i might make the eggs into a merangue as this had the texture of a lemon one. It didnt rise much at all in the oven so dont be afriad of filling the pastry case.

  Great tart except the lime completely killed the passionfruit flavour so I would leave it out next time. Brulee-ing the top was brilliant!! Really added to it. Have to admit I cheated and bought a pastry case which made it even more easier!! Will definately try it again.

  This is a wonderful dessert - really light and tasty. I wouldn't change the ingredients or quantities at all! I usually make it one or two days before serving, to let the flavours develop. The key is to ensure that the pastry is not cracked or broken, otherwise the liquid filling will pour through the cracks and make the base soggy. If you want a hard crunchy topping, brulee the tart just before serving. If you brulee it a few hours beforehand, it will go soft (but it still looks pretty!).

  I have made this several times and it is always impressive and very popular. I have made it as little individual tarts as well as the big one. When I have caramelised the top I have done it under the grill putting silver foil over the pastry edges so as not to blacken them, it works excelently. A great dinner party dish works every time.

  Seriously good! Made my own pastry (200g plain flour, 100g butter, 1 beaten egg, 1 tbspn sugar blitzed in food processor) but apart from that followed recipe exactly. Will definitely make again.

  Couldn't really taste the passion fruit as the lime over powered it but it was nice tasting. I served it with raspberries on top instead of caramelising it. Will make again with less lime and more passion fruit.
