Decadent delight: White chocolate and passion fruit mousse recipe

Ingredients: 300 grams white chocolate, 6 large eggs (separated), 10 passion fruit, approx. 300 grams raspberries

Break the chocolate into pieces and melt in the microwave for about 3 minutes, or in a bowl over a pan of simmering water. Set the bowl aside and let the chocolate cool a little.

Beat the egg whites until stiff but not dry. Mix the egg yolks into the cooled chocolate, though be gentle to ensure it doesn't seize.

Cut the passion fruit in half and scoop them, juice, pulp, seeds, into the yolk and chocolate mixture, then fold into the egg whites until completely incorporated.

Line the bottom of either a big glass bowl or eight to ten small glasses with a layer of raspberries and pour over the mousse. Leave for a couple of hours to set in the fridge or for at least 4 if you're using one large bowl.

Note: this recipe contains raw or lightly cooked eggs, and is not suitable for people with compromised or weak immune systems, such as younger children, the elderly or pregnant women. (Recipe: Nigella Lawson, Instagram/nigellalawson)
