Meringues

After making over 70 meringues one week i finally perfected my recipe!

I make these around New year and serve them as a light alternative to that heavy christmas pudding, The crunching of the shell and the sweetness of the marshmallow filling is enough to make my mouth water as i type this blog.

4 egg white

240g Caster Sugar

1 tsp white wine vinegar

2 tsp Corn-flour

1. Using your kitchen-aid, whisk the egg whites and gradually add the sugar

until you have firm peaks forming.

2. Prepare 2 baking sheets with grease proof paper on top.

3. Fold in the white wine vinegar and the corn flour.

4. Prepare a piping bag and spoon the mixture into it, with a fancy icing

nozzle.

5. Pipe the mixture onto baking trays. Insert straight into oven and

IMMEDIATELY turn the oven down to 130'C, leave for 30 minutes.

6. For the final 30 minutes of oven cooking turn the oven off.

To decorate whip some double cream, and chop fresh strawberries dressed with a dash of lemon juice and a sprinkle of sugar. Place on top of a mashed meringue and you have heaven on a plate.
