passion in munich

On August 5th my fav friends Kanyika and Nikhil got married in one of the most entertaining and alternative weddings i've attended. I realised when i saw the story of nik-nak and kan-kin (was it not?), what a fairytale time they've had, leading upto the big moment. they're moving away to far away lands to start on a four month (well nearly!)long honeymoon. the ultimate gift for K would have been a breakthrough technique of not only packaging but also transporting fresh gobi manchurian to munich just about..every weekend?! K's wedding gift to all of us was to be a photo-copy of her deliciously detailed and brilliantly compiled collection of receipes. The request still stands :) In the meantime, as i was flipping through an old book, i came across this yummy sounding receipe:

This receipe (which you should try and let me know if its any good)is dedicated to K and N, for a happy life full of passion!

(really i know you're thinking, 'who puts up receipes on their blog unless they've tried them out, right?'. but if K can make ANYTHING taste scrumptious, so can you!)

Passionfruit Cheesecake:

Ingredients: (Serves 6)
. 350 gm soft cheese
. 50 gm castor sugar
. 300 ml fresh cream
. 1 tsp vanilla essence
. 100 gm digestive biscuits
. 60 gm melted butter
. 250 gm rasberries
. 1 tsp icing sugar
. 1 tsp lime juice
. 100 ml passion fruit puree

Method:
To make the blance, cream the cheese and sugar until fluffy. Whip the fresh cream in a bowl until it is slightly firm. Fold this into the cheese mixture and add vanilla essence. For the base, place the biscuits in a food processor and blend until fine. Melt the butter in a small bowl and add to the biscuit mixture. Then spread over the dish / mould. Set in the fridge for five minutes. Take it out and spoon the cheese mixture into each mould or dish. Leave it to set for two hours. The sauce is made by blending the rasberry in a food processor. Pass through a sieve; add lemon juice and icing sugar and pour over the blance before serving.

(passion fruit puree?) guess it goes in somewhere!

try it this sunday!
