Coconut Lime Soufflé
Baking and Desserts • World
Description
Before, during, and after baking the soufflé, make sure that the windows or balcony in your apartment, or at least in the kitchen, are closed; otherwise, the soufflé will fall immediately, and you won't have time to admire it. However, even when fallen, the soufflé is delicious, albeit less visually appealing.
Ingredients
- Wheat Flour 1 tablespoon
- Butter 1 tablespoon
- Coconut Milk 10 fl oz
- Sugar 0 oz
- Lime 1 piece
- Farm fresh eggs 2 pieces
- Salt a pinch
- Powdered Sugar to taste
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 355°F. Grate the lime zest. Grease two ramekins with warm butter and sprinkle sugar on the bottom and sides of the molds. Separate the yolks and whites. Whisk the yolks with half of the sugar until pale yellow and thick.
Step 2
Pour the coconut milk into a small saucepan, add the zest, stir, place over medium heat, and bring to a slight boil. Remove from heat and gradually pour the hot milk in a thin stream into the whipped yolks while constantly and quickly stirring, otherwise, the yolks may curdle. Return the milk-egg mixture back to the saucepan, place over low heat, add the sifted flour, and quickly mix with a whisk. Reduce the heat to the minimum and cook, stirring constantly, until the cream thickens. After that, remove from heat and fold in the warm butter. Mix until smooth and set aside.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt, gradually adding the remaining sugar. Whip until you achieve a white, firm foam. Gently fold the cream into the whipped whites, mixing from top to bottom.
Step 4
Transfer the prepared mixture into the ramekins. Run your finger along the edges of the molds to remove excess coconut mixture—this will help the soufflé rise evenly and prevent it from spilling over. Place the soufflé in the oven for 15–18 minutes, baking until the top is golden brown. Remove the soufflé, lightly dust with powdered sugar, and garnish with a lime wedge. Serve immediately while the soufflé is still puffed.
