INGREDIENTS
• 4 egg whites• 250 g castor sugar• 1 teaspoon white vinegar • 1 teaspoon cornflour (maizena (corn flour))• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
METHOD
Heat oven to 150°C.
Beat egg whites in a stand mixer on medium until they form soft peaks. Then whisk in the sugar 1 tablespoon at a time until it looks glossy.
Whisk in the cornflour, vanilla and vinegar. Spread the meringue into a big circle or pipe into minis with the sides higher than the middle.
Bake for 1 hour. Switch off oven and leave to cool off in oven.
Pipe sweetened fresh cream and decorate with fruit of choice before serving. *About an hour before serving.
INFO & TIPS
* Use Meadowlands cream because it stays firm for longer compared to normal fresh cream which tends to weep very quickly.
* Meringues can be stored for a long time in an airtight Tupperware. Decorate just before serving.
* Yolks can be used to make homemade custard. Very tasty.
