-
Combine Butter and Sugar:
- Place the unsalted butter and granulated sugar in the top section of a double saucepan or a metal bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water.
- Allow them to melt together, stirring occasionally until smooth. This should take about 15 minutes.
-
Whisk in Eggs and Passionfruit Pulp:
- Once the butter and sugar have combined, whisk in the beaten eggs and passionfruit pulp.
- Continue to cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly for about 15 minutes, until it thickens and coats the back of a wooden spoon.
- Be careful not to let it boil to prevent curdling.
-
Cool and Refrigerate:
- Remove the curd from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
- Once cooled, cover the surface with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming.
- Refrigerate the curd until chilled. It will keep well for 1 to 2 weeks in the fridge.
