A deliciously sweet fresh fruit pavlova bursting with fruity flavours

Ingredients

  • 4 Egg Whites Free-Range and large
  • 200 g Golden Caster Sugar
  • Pinch Salt
  • 300-400 ml Double Cream - whipped
  • Fresh Fruits whatever you fancy I used 2 Ripe Nectarines and a couple of handfuls ripe fresh Cherries (de- stoned)
  • Optional - a little fruit puree not on mine
  • Drizzle Honey
  • Mint leaves yes I know mine are basil in the pic
  • Icing Sugar - for dusting

Instructions

  • Pre-heat Oven 150C/300F/Gas 2
  • Line a largish Baking Tray - you can make your Pavlova any shape you like!
  • Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites using a spotlessly clean bowl for a few minutes unit the egg white are stiff
  • Gradually add the sugar & salt whilst the mixer is running and then whip on high speed for 7 minutes or so.
  • The meringue should not be gritty, if it is keep mixing
  • Spoon the meringue into the desired shape onto the lined baking tray, try to make the edges a little thicker than the middle
  • Bake in the pre-heated oven for minimum 1 hour, max 1 hour 15 mins.
  • Remove from the oven and leave to cool, should be golden brown and a little cracked but soft (I leave mine overnight and then fill in the morning)
  • When you are ready to construct whip your cream until thick and spoon on meringue
  • If you want a little fruit puree on the Pavlova add now
  • Decorate with fresh fruits and drizzle in honey
  • Finally finish with Mint leaves and a sprinkle of Icing Sugar

    Do you not need to add cornflour and vanilla essence to the pavlova mix?
