Lime Mousse
- 2 teaspoons gelatine powder
- 1/2 cup water
- 4 egg yolks
- 1 cup sugar caster
- 1/2 cup lime juice
- 2 teaspoons lime zest grated
- 6 egg whites
- 1 cup cream
- Soften the gelatine in the water. Melt it in a bain marie over heat and set aside to cool.
- Beat the egg yolks, sugar and lime juice until combined. Stir the mixture constantly over heat until it forms a custard, coating the back of a spoon. Do not boil - remove from the heat and cool.
- Add the gelatine and lime zest. Beat the egg whites until stiff but not dry. Fold into the cool custard using a spatula. Whip the cream and, when the mousse is beginning to set around the edges, fold it in also.
- Pour the mixture into a large savarin mould and chill at least 2 hours.
- Serve with fresh lime wedges and whipped cream.
