175g (6oz) caster sugar
275ml (10 fl.oz.) double cream
fresh fruit eg raspberries, strawberries, grapes, kiwi fruit
method 1 Whisk the egg whites on a high speed until they form ‘soft peaks’.
2 With the whisk operating on speed 5, gradually add the sugar one
tablespoon at a time, whisking after each addition.
3 Line a baking tray with silicone paper, then spoon the meringue onto the
paper forming a nest approximately 20cm/8” in diameter.
4 Place the baking tray into an oven preheated to 150˚C/300˚F/Gas Mark 2,
then immediately reduce the temperature to 140˚C/275˚F/Gas Mark 1 and
bake for 1 hour. Turn the heat off but leave the pavlova in the oven to cool
down.
5 When ready to serve, peel off the silicone paper and place on a serving
dish. Whip the cream until soft peaks form then spread over the top of the
pavlova and decorate with the fruit.
