Mini Pavlovas recipe

Step 1

Pre-heat oven to 200C degrees. Line two large baking trays with baking paper.

Step 2

With an electric mixer, beat egg whites for 5-6 minutes, gradually adding the sugar, vinegar and rosewater. The mixture should become thick and glossy, and hold its peak. The sugar should also be dissolved.

Step 3

Sift the cornflour over the mixture. Using a large metal spoon, gently fold the cornflour into the mixture.

Step 4

Use the metal spoon to heap dollops of the mixture onto the prepared trays. Try to keep each spoonful circular in shape, and create a shallow dip in the centre of each.

Step 5

Turn the oven down to 125C degrees and place the pavlovas in the oven. Cook for 30 minutes.

Step 6

Once the pavlovas are cooked, turn the oven off and leave pavlovas in the oven until they have cooled completely.

Step 7

Once the pavlovas have cooled, or just prior to serving, whip the cream with the rose syrup until it is light and fluffy. Place small spoonfuls of the cream in the centre of each pavlova. Top each with a small mixture of berries.
