This recipe combines the unique sweetness of rambutan with the tangy zest of lemon, creating a refreshing and flavourful dessert. The air fryer makes the pastry cups quick and easy to prepare.

Yields: 6 servings

Prep time: 40 minutes

Cook time: 15-18 minutes

Ingredients:

For the Lemon Pastry Cups:

  • 1 sheet (about 14 oz) refrigerated pie crust
  • 2 tablespoons lemon curd
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 tablespoon milk or cream, for brushing

For the Rambutan Pudding:

  • 1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk
  • 1 cup rambutan, peeled and pitted
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons gelatin powder
  • 1/4 cup cold water
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Equipment:

  • Mixing bowls
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Whisk
  • 6 ramekins or small oven-safe dishes
  • Rolling pin
  • Air fryer

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Rambutan Pudding:
    • In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatine powder over the cold water. Let it bloom for 5 minutes.
    • In a blender, combine the rambutan, coconut milk, sugar, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth.
    • Pour the mixture into a saucepan and heat over medium heat, stirring until it's warm. Do not boil.
    • Remove from heat and whisk in the bloomed gelatine and vanilla extract until smooth.
    • Pour the mixture into the ramekins or small dishes and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.
  2. Make the Lemon Pastry Cups:
    • Preheat air fryer to 175°C (350°F).
    • In a small bowl, combine lemon curd and lemon zest.
    • On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pie crust to about 1/8-inch thickness.
    • Use a cookie cutter or knife to cut out circles slightly larger than the diameter of your ramekins.
    • Gently press the pastry circles into the ramekins, forming cups.
    • Spoon the lemon curd mixture into the pastry cups.
    • Brush the edges of the pastry with milk or cream.
  3. Air Fry and Assemble:
    • Carefully place the ramekins into the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded. You may need to cook them in batches.
    • Air fry for 15-18 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and cooked through.
    • Let cool slightly before serving.
    • To serve, gently loosen the edges of the rambutan pudding with a knife and invert it onto the lemon pastry cup.

Tips for Success:

  • Rambutan: Use fresh or canned rambutan, but drain canned rambutan well.
  • Gelatine: Make sure the gelatine is fully dissolved to ensure the pudding sets properly.
  • Lemon Curd: You can use store-bought or homemade lemon curd.
  • Air Fryer: Keep an eye on the pastry while air frying to prevent it from burning.
  • Flavour: Adjust the amount of lemon juice to your preference for sourness.

A Flavour Explosion:

This Air Fryer Rambutan Pudding in Lemon Pastry Cup is a delightful combination of sweet and sour. The exotic, slightly floral sweetness of the rambutan pairs beautifully with the bright, tangy lemon. The creamy pudding and flaky pastry create a wonderful textural contrast. It's a unique and refreshing dessert that's sure to impress!
