Method

1
Spoon the water into a small heatproof bowl or mug, sprinkle the gelatine over the top making sure that the gelatine is absorbed by the water then leave to soak for five minutes.
2
Puree the lychees with half the syrup from the can in a liquidiser or food processor until smooth.
3
Heat the bowl or mug of gelatine in a saucepan of simmering water for about five minutes or until it becomes a clear liquid then stir in the honey until melted.
4
Whisk the cream in a bowl until it forms soft swirls. Fold in the yogurt, pureed lychees and then the gelatine and honey mix. Pour into 6 glass tumblers and chill in the fridge for 3-4 hours or until set.
5
Spoon the diced kiwi into a bowl, scoop out the seeds from the passion fruit with a teaspoon, mix with the kiwi then spoon over the chilled desserts just before serving.

Tips: Lychees add an exotic, slightly perfumed flavour to this yogurt based mousse. Set in pretty glass dishes or one large dish , this fresh and summery dessert looks stunning topped with diced kiwi fruits or a mix of summer berries.
