Passionfruit Curd - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter
2 cups superfine sugar
6 ounces passion fruit pulp
5 large eggs, beaten

Preparation

Place the butter and sugar in the top section of a double saucepan or metal bowl, and set over a saucepan of simmering water.
Allow them to combine and melt together, stirring from time to time until smooth, about 15 minutes.
Whisk in the beaten eggs and passionfruit pulp, then cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly for about 15 minutes, until it thickens and coats the back of a wooden spoon.
Do not allow it to boil, otherwise it will curdle!
Cool to room temperature, cover the surface with plastic wrap, then refrigerate until chilled.
Keeps 1 to 2 weeks in the fridge.
