Tonight I attempted the kiwi classic, the Pavlova. We're going to a pot luck dinner tomorrow night and I've watched my Mum make it twice now and convinced it's time to try it on my own.
2 egg whites
1 tsp corn flour
1 tsp white vinegar
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2c castor sugar
4 tbsl boiling water
Preheat oven to 180 deg C
Combine all ingredients, beat with electric beater for 15 minutes. Pile onto a flat oven tray covered in non-stick baking paper. Smooth out and squash down until it is cake sized and shaped with as few "flicks" as possible. Bake for 10 minutes, then turn oven off and leave in oven for a further 60 minutes. DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN.
Decorate with cream and seasonal fruit, and enjoy the taste of home-made pav! Yes, mine may be cracked a bit around the outside but at least she hasn't collapsed.
Tastes AMAZING! Was a hit at the pot-luck dinner :)
