MINI BERRY PAVLOVAS
Pavlova is a wonderful meringue-based dessert named for the legendary Russian ballerina, Anna Pavlova. Pavlova is commonly served with a fruit component, it is fabulous to serve for company and easy to make!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl on medium speed with an electric mixer until until soft peaks form, about 3 minutes. Slowly add sugar, cornstarch, and cream of tartar and continue beating on high speed until stiff, glossy peaks form, 3 to 5 minutes. Add vanilla extract and salt and beat until combined, about 30 seconds.
- Scoop the meringue with a spring-hinged scoop onto the prepared baking sheet and shape into individual rounds about 3 inches in diameter. Use the back of a spoon to create an indentation in the center of the meringue.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the meringue is dry to the touch, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Transfer the parchment with the meringues on it to a wire rack and allow to cool. Once meringues are cool to the touch, remove from parchment and place directly on the rack to cool completely, about 1 hour.
- When ready to serve, top each meringue with whipped cream and garnish with fresh berries.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees with racks in the upper and lower third. Using a 3-inch bowl or round cutter, trace 6 circles on each of 2 sheets of parchment paper. Transfer each sheet of paper to a baking sheet tracing-side down.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites and a pinch of salt on medium-high speed until soft, glossy peaks form. With mixer running, add granulated sugar 1 tablespoon at a time. Beat meringue on high until stiff and glossy, about 5 minutes more. Sprinkle in cornstarch, vinegar, and vanilla; gently fold to combine.
- Using two spoons, scoop a mound of meringue in the center of each of the circles. Use the back of one spoon to create an indentation in the center of each mound. Transfer baking sheets to oven. Bake until firm and dry to the touch but not browned, 35 to 40 minutes. Turn off oven and let meringues cool for 1 hour. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Whisk cream and confectioners' sugar until soft peaks form. Top meringues with a dollop of whipped cream and a spoonful of blueberries. Sprinkle lemon zest over berries. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 160° C.
- For the pavlova, whisk the egg whites until they form stiff peaks, then gently add in the sugar. The meringue that forms will start to look glossy. Add the cornflour, vanilla and vinegar and use a spatula to gently fold in.
- Spoon the meringue into small circles, about the width of an average coffee cup, onto a baking tray lined with baking paper. Use a spoon to form a slight dent in each circle, making the sides a little higher than the middle. Reduce the oven heat to 130° C and bake for 30 minutes, then turn off the heat and remove from the oven to cool.
- When cooled, assemble: spray a dollop of the whipping cream into the well of each meringue and top with the passion fruit coulis, kiwi and blueberries and finish off with mint.
- Serve.
Tips:
- For the perfect meringue, make sure your egg whites are at room temperature and free of any traces of yolk.
- Beat the egg whites gradually, starting on low speed and increasing to high as the whites begin to foam.
- Add the sugar slowly, one tablespoon at a time, while continuing to beat the egg whites.
- Beat the egg whites until they are stiff and glossy and form peaks that hold their shape.
- To prevent the pavlovas from cracking, preheat the oven to 250°F (120°C) before putting them in.
- Bake the pavlovas for 1-2 hours, or until they are crisp on the outside and marshmallowy on the inside.
- Let the pavlovas cool completely before topping them with fruit and cream.
- For a more intense berry flavor, use a mixture of fresh and frozen berries.
- If you don't have any fresh berries, you can use thawed frozen berries or even canned berries in a pinch.
