Passionfruit

Native to Brazil, passionfruit now grows all over the world and was introduced to Australia in the early 1900s. Passionfruit is round to oval in shape with the fruit's colour ranging from yellow to purple. The strong leathery skin contains a multitude of small, black edible seeds.

Seasonality

Available from January to December.

Serving suggestion

Eat fresh by cutting in half and scooping out the seeds, scatter seeds over ice cream, pavolva filled with mixed tropical fruit or strain to make into sorbet.
