KIWI-BERRY PAVLOVA
Fancy this: An elegant, easy recipe from Cher Lewis in New York City. For a crisp outcome, do your baking on a dry day -- humidity makes for a soft-textured meringue. If you like, trade other soft fruit for kiwi and raspberries.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 200, with rack in center. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside. In a small bowl, whisk sugar and cornstarch until combined.
- Make meringue: In a large mixing bowl, using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat egg whites, lemon juice, and salt until very frothy. Add 1 tablespoon sugar mixture every 30 seconds, until stiff, glossy peaks form, about 8 minutes total, scraping down sides of bowl halfway through.
- Mound meringue onto prepared baking sheet; gently spread to a 9-inch circle, with a well in the center and a 1-inch raised border around the edge.
- Bake until shell is crisp on the outside and marshmallowy on the inside, about 2 1/2 hours (reduce oven temperature to 175 if it starts to brown). Turn oven off; let meringue dry out in closed oven for another 2 1/2 hours, or up to overnight.
- Just before serving, using an electric mixer, beat cream and vanilla in a medium bowl until soft peaks form. Fill shell with whipped cream, and top with fruit. To serve, use a serrated knife to cut into wedges.

Steps:
- Beat egg whites, cream of tartar and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Beat in sugar, 1 tbsp at a time, until stiff, glossy peaks form. Beat in cornstarch, vinegar and vanilla just until blended.
- On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil, spread meringue into a 10-inch (25 cm) circle with a raised edge and a slight indentation in the centre.
- Bake in a preheated 250 degrees F (120 degrees C) oven until firm to the touch, about 1-1/4 hours. Meringue should be cream-coloured. If it appears to be browning, reduce oven temperature to 225 degrees F (105 degrees C).
- Remove from oven and let cool.
- When ready to serve, peel parchment paper off back of meringue. Place meringue on a serving plate. Cut strawberries into halves or slices, if large. Whip cream until stiff peaks form. Gently stir in liqueur, if using. Spread whipped cream over meringue leaving edge of meringue visible. Top with strawberries. Cut into wedges to serve.

Steps:
- Best to make the meringue the night before.
- Preheat oven to 275F (135C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Draw a 9 inch circle on paper. To make meringue, beat egg whites with salt until stiff peaks form. Gradually beat in superfine sugar, then continue to beat 5 minutes. Fold in cornstarch and vinegar. Using a metal spatula, spread meringue mixture evenly over circle on prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in oven 10 minutes. Lower heat to 225F (105C) and cook 45 minutes more. Turn off heat and leave meringue in oven to cool slowly 1 hour at least. I usually leave it in all night. Remove from oven and carefully transfer to a plate.
- Make sure your fruit is thawed at this point.
- To make filling, whip cream with sugar until thick. You can cut up 1 kiwi into the whipped cream if you like. I normally do, but make sure your kiwis are sweet before you do, otherwise you can ruin the whipped cream.
- Carefully spoon cream mixture over meringue, smoothing with a metal spatula. Decorate top with fruit. I slice the kiwis and line them all around the edge. Then I put the strawberries inside the kiwi line and in the very center I put the blueberries. Serve immediately cut in wedges.
LEMON BLUEBERRY PAVLOVA
My favorite way to enjoy lemon meringue is with pavlova. The meringue base cools and dries out slowly, creating a crispy, crunchy crust on the outside which contrasts beautifully with a soft, sticky center. Topped with an intense lemon curd filling, fresh blueberries, and a homemade blueberry sauce, this dessert takes a little bit of time to make but is also simple and easy to pull off!

Steps:
- Prepare lemon curd filling: Cut butter into small pieces and set aside.
- Separate eggs, placing yolks in a heat-proof bowl and whites in glass, metal, or ceramic bowl. Cover egg whites and leave on the counter to come to room temperature for the meringue.
- Add lemon zest, salt, sugar, and lemon juice to egg yolks. Whisk until thoroughly combined.
- Add 1 to 2 inches water to a saucepan over low heat; bring to a simmer. Place bowl of filling over the simmering water. Cook, stirring constantly with a spatula, until mixture is very hot to the touch and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Stir in butter, 3 or 4 pieces at a time, waiting until butter has melted before each addition. Remove from the heat and pour filling into a bowl to cool, about 15 minutes. Lay plastic wrap on top of the filling, pressing down so it doesn't develop a skin, and place in the refrigerator until well chilled, 2 to 3 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone liner, such as Silpat®. Lightly spray with cooking spray.
- Begin meringue: Mix cornstarch into sugar and set aside.
- Add cream of tartar, lemon juice, and vanilla to the reserved egg whites. Whisk with a large whisk until very soft peaks form, about 3 minutes. Whisk in sugar mixture, 2 tablespoons at a time, whisking about 1 minute between each addition, until incorporated. When all sugar mixture has been added, continue to whisk until relatively stiff peaks form and whites are firm enough to hold their shape.
- Use 2 spoons or a piping bag to transfer whites onto the prepared baking sheet, forming a ring of dollops about 8 or 9 inches across. Fill in the middle with meringue, then go back around the edges adding more meringue to build up the outside edge.
- Bake in the center of the preheated oven for exactly 1 hour. At 1 hour, turn off the oven and crack the door. Let meringue sit in the oven until its cooled completely, about 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, prepare blueberry sauce: combine 1 cup blueberries, sugar, and water in a saucepan over medium heat; bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until blueberries collapse and liquid thickens, about 10 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and pass through a fine mesh strainer. Place in the refrigerator until fully chilled, about 45 minutes.
- Very carefully transfer cooled meringue to a serving platter using 2 large spatulas if necessary; you may get some cracks but that's okay. Use a spoon to crack the center a bit to make room for the filling.
- Fill the center with chilled lemon curd filling. Place remaining blueberries over top and drizzle with blueberry sauce. Garnish with mint.

Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe fruit. This will ensure that your pavlova is bursting with flavor.
- Make sure the egg whites are at room temperature. This will help them reach their full potential when whipped.
- Whip the egg whites gradually, starting on low speed and increasing to high. This will help prevent them from becoming grainy.
- Do not overbeat the egg whites. They should be stiff but still glossy.
- Add the sugar slowly, one tablespoon at a time. This will help prevent the egg whites from collapsing.
- Bake the pavlova at a low temperature for a long time. This will help it to rise slowly and evenly.
- Do not open the oven door during baking. This will cause the pavlova to collapse.
- Let the pavlova cool completely before topping it with fruit and cream. This will help to prevent it from becoming soggy.
Conclusion:
Pavlova is a delicious and impressive dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With a little planning and effort, you can create a pavlova that is sure to wow your guests. Just remember to use fresh, ripe fruit, whip the egg whites gradually, and bake the pavlova at a low temperature for a long time.
