sugar and eggwhites
Look what you get when you whip egg whites and sugar then add raspberries ,lemon curd and vanilla ice cream a dreamy concoction to delight the taste buds.
Meringue recipe;
Whip 5 egg whites in stand mixer until slightly frothy
heat 300g castor sugar spread out on baking sheet for approx 8 minutes in 200 C oven
Add warm sugar to mixer- whipping eggs and sugar approx 10 minutes, it becomes white and stiff.
Drop large spoonfuls onto baking sheet
it makes about 8 really good size meringues (double mixture for party meringues you'll get loads if you make them smaller)
bake at 110C for up to 2hrs
note;
I only did an hour in the oven ( had to walk on the beach with dogs) and they came out soft and mallowy with a crisp outer just delicious. Topped with thawed frozen berries lemon curd and vanilla ice cream and dusted with icing sugar just for looks. Enjoy
