Method
Place the passion fruit seeds and sugar in a saucepan and cook on low heat until the sugar has dissolved. Place to one side to cool.
Heat the milk and cream in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Remove from the heat and stir in the brûlée powder, whisking continuously for approximately 2 minutes.
Separate the custard mixture into two bowls. Mix the papaya puree into one bowl and the lychee puree into the other.
Pour a layer of the papaya custard mix into the desired serving shot glasses. Refrigerate to cool for 10 minutes – the shots will not set fully but will thicken slightly.
Top with the lychee custard and return to the fridge for a further 10
minutes.
Top with the passion fruit coulis and serve.
