To make the choux pastry, add the water, milk, butter and sugar in a pan and heat until all the butter has melted and the sugar has dissolved. Add the flour and quickly beat into the wet ingredients using a wooden spoon until completely combined and forms a ball.
For this step you'll need:
- 80ml Water
- 20ml Milk (whole)
- 30g Butter (unsalted)
- 1tsp Unrefined golden caster sugar
- 50g Plain white flour

Turn the heat down to a low/medium heat and keep beating this mixture for around 2 minutes, to cook out the flour. Don’t worry too much if the flour sticks to the bottom of the pan as this is normal.

After 2 minutes, remove the pan from the heat and gradually beat in the eggs, one at a time.
For this step you'll need:
- 2 Egg(s) (free range) large

Place the pastry mix into a piping bag and leave to cool for about 5-10 minutes.
-

Next line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Snip off the end of the piping bag to about 1cm, and pipe rounds of the pastry onto the baking sheet. When you have finished, dip your index finger in a bit of water and press down onto every profiterole giving each one an even finish on the top.

For the cream, place the passion fruit in a sieve and use the back of a spoon to push through all the juice and pulp, ensuring there are no seeds.

- 400g Passion fruit(s) juice and pulp, seeds removed

Add the mascarpone and icing sugar to the passion fruit juice and whisk together using a hand-held mixer until light and airy. Place into a piping bag and pipe into the cooled profiteroles.
