Then, use a spoon to remove leftover parts and clean the inside of passion fruit peel. Wash again in fresh water. Dry and left aside.
Use a knife to cut a thin slice in the bottom of passion fruit peel to make a mousse cup.
You can use glass or plastic cup to contain the mousse if you don’t want to use passion fruit peel as mousse cup.
Pour the passion fruit mousse in ¾ cups.
Place the cups on tray and put the whole tray in freezer for 30-45 min or fridge in 60 min to harden the mousse and its surface.
