Alecia’s pavlova

6 servings ?

Ingredients

• 6 egg whites
• 1 1/4 cups (270 g) superfine sugar
• 2 tsp cornflour
• 1 tsp white vinegar
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 300 mL heavy whipping cream
• 2 tbsp powdered sugar
• 2 limes (optional)
• 8 fruits (red or passion)

Recipe

1. Oven: 120 °C.
2. Baking paper on a tray. Brush with butter and dust with cornflour.
3. Whisk egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, 1 tbsp at a time, until thick and glossy. If you rub the meringue, it should no longer be grainy.
4. Add cornflour, vinegar, vanilla, whisk until just combined.
5. Spoon onto baking paper in a dome. Smooth sides.
6. Bake for 1h30m (in my oven in Israel, that wasn’t long or hot enough).
7. Turn off oven, let pavlova cool down inside.
8. Whisk the whipping cream and powdered sugar.
9. Peel lime rinds. Juice limes. Chop fruits. Toss fruits with lime juice.
10. Decorate pavlova with cream and fruits.
