Time 2h35m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 egg whites
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon cornstarch
½ teaspoon cream of tartar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
1 cup whipped cream, or more to taste
¾ cup sliced fresh berries, or more to taste

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.

Time 2h45m

Yield Makes 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 large egg whites, room temperature
Kosher salt
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon cornstarch
2 teaspoons white-wine vinegar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
2 tablespoon confectioners' sugar
1 pint blueberries
Zest of 1 lemon

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.

MINI PAVLOVAS (INDIVIDUAL SERVE PAVLOVA)



Mini Pavlovas (Individual Serve Pavlova) image

An ever popular Australian/NZ favourite. Makes 6 individual pavlovas. Serve topped with cream or fruche and fruit of your choice. The favourites in my home are strawberries, kiwifruit, passionfruit, flaked chocolate and even crushed peppermint crisp chocolate bar.It's best to use your eggs at room temperature and to ensure your bowl to whip the egg whites in is super clean. Make sure your egg whites have absolutely no egg yolk with them, or you whites will not whip up properly. If you eat gluten-free ensure your flour and thickened cream used are also gluten free. Please note-times given to not include cooling time. You can use gluten free or lactose free youghurt to top these if desired.

Categories     dessert

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup sugar (100 grams)
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch (1.25 grams)
2 egg whites (70 grams)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt (1 gram)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (2.5 milliliters)
1 cup quartered strawberries
1 cup chopped rhubarb
2 tablespoons dry white wine or water (30 milliliters)
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, divided (50 grams plus 12.5 grams)
1 cup 35% cream (250 milliliters)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (5 milliliters)
2 tablespoons toasted slivered almonds

Steps:

  • For the meringues: Preheat your oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the sugar and cornstarch and set aside.
  • Wipe a metal, glass or ceramic bowl out with paper towel and add in the egg whites and salt. Using a hand mixer, whip the egg whites on high until soft, foamy peaks form. With the mixer running, slowly sprinkle in the sugar mixture and continue to whip until the meringue is glossy and stiff peaks hold when the beaters are lifted out of the mixture.
  • Whip in the vanilla. Using a large spoon, drop four large dollops of the meringue onto the prepared baking sheet, creating an indentation in the middle of each.
  • Bake for 1 hour. Turn the oven off and allow the meringues to sit in the oven until cooled completely, about 30 minutes.
  • For the toppings: Meanwhile, combine the strawberries and rhubarb in a small saucepan with the wine or water and 1/4 cup sugar. Place over medium-low heat and cook for about 10 to 15 minutes, or until the fruit starts to break down and becomes jammy. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool to room temperature. Cover and store in the fridge until ready to assemble.
  • Just before serving, whip the cream with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar and the vanilla. To serve, dollop whipped cream in the center of each pavlova and top with the fruit and a scattering of toasted almonds.

Here's what you need: egg whites, caster sugar, cornflour, vanilla extract, white wine vinegar, whipping cream, store-bought passion fruit coulis, kiwis, blueberry, mint

Provided by Lorna Maseko

Categories     Breakfast

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 egg whites
2 ¼ cups caster sugar
1 teaspoon cornflour
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
1 cup whipping cream
1 cup store-bought passion fruit coulis
3 kiwis, peeled and diced
1 cup blueberry
mint, to garnish

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:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best results.
  • Make sure your eggs are at room temperature before you start baking.
  • Beat the egg whites until they are stiff and glossy.
  • Gradually add the sugar to the egg whites while continuing to beat.
  • Bake the pavlovas at a low temperature for a long time.
  • Let the pavlovas cool completely before topping them with fruit and whipped cream.
  • Serve the pavlovas immediately after topping them.

Conclusion:

Mini pavlovas are a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little bit of planning, you can make these individual pavlovas ahead of time and have them ready to serve when your guests arrive.
