Mini Strawberry Pavlovas
Crisp shells, soft marshmallow centres, and fresh strawberry flavour.
A light Australian favourite made for sharing.
Ingredients:
4 large egg whites, at room temperature
1 cup (220 g) caster sugar
1 teaspoon cornflour
1 teaspoon white vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup (240 ml) thickened cream, cold
1 tablespoon icing sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract, extra
1½ cups (220 g) diced strawberries
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 120°C / 250°F. Line a large baking tray with baking paper.
Beat the egg whites until soft peaks form.
Add the caster sugar one tablespoon at a time, beating well after each addition. Continue until the meringue is thick, glossy and the sugar has dissolved.
Fold in the cornflour, vinegar and vanilla.
Spoon six mounds onto the tray and shape a shallow hollow in each centre.
Bake for 75 minutes. Turn off the oven and allow the pavlovas to cool completely inside with the door slightly open.
Whip the cream, icing sugar and extra vanilla to soft peaks.
Fill the cooled pavlovas with cream and top with diced strawberries. Makes 6.
