Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 275 degrees Fahrenheit (135 C).
- You'll need to start with a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment and a clean, dry bowl.
- Pro Tip #1: The trick to the perfect pavlova is making sure you whip enough air into the egg whites, so if you start with a bowl that's even a little bit wet or contains even a trace of oil, the egg whites won't aerate properly and the pavlova will sink in the middle. Avoid using a plastic bowl since plastic can absorb oil. Glass bowls are best, and metal bowls work well too.
- Add the 4 egg whites to the bowl. When you're separating your egg whites from the yolks, make sure the yolks are intact. If any yolk gets into the whites they won't aerate properly and you'll have a hard time achieving the correct consistency for the meringue mixture . When you notice the egg whites have become quite foamy, begin to add the sugar very gradually, 1/4 cup at a time.
- Once you've added all the sugar let the mixture continue to whip on high speed until stiff peaks form and all the sugar has dissolved.
- Pro Tip #2: You will know you've allowed the mixture to whip long enough when you can see a stiff peak when you pull the whisk attachment out of the mixture and turn it upside down, and when you're able to rub a small amount of the mixture between your fingers and it feels smooth (no grains of sugar present). Don't stick your finger directly into the mixture! Your skin has oils on it that can affect the texture of the meringue so it's best to grab a clean, dry spoon and grab a bit of the mixture that way so you can rub it between your fingers.
- Next, add the cornstarch and a few drops of vanilla and whip only until it's combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl once.
- Pro Tip #3: Trace a circle (about 8 inches in diameteon a piece of parchment paper with a Sharpie. Turn over the piece of parchment paper and place it on a rimless baking sheet (a pizza pan also works welwith the marked side down. Scrape the mixture out of the bowl and onto the parchment paper, using the circle you traced as a guide for the size and shape of the pavlova. It's important to trace the shape on the underside of the parchment, and not the side that actually touches the pavlova as the marker will transfer to the pavlova during baking and discolour it.
- Pro Tip #4: Using a pallet knife or hard spatula, pull up the sides of the pavlova in a swirling motion to create a very shallow "crater" in the middle. This will help it keep its shape during baking. It may be tempting to shape the pavlova with a larger diameter than 8 inches, but try to keep it small and tall. This will create a more impressive appearance and ensure there's a thick layer of that delicious marshmallowy interior!
- Bake the pavlova in a 275 degree oven for about 80-90 minutes. A good thing to remember is that your pavlova will not over-bake unless it starts to brown.
- Pro Tip #5: The real danger is in under-baking as this will cause the pavlova to remain raw in the middle and collapse as soon as it begins to cool. Trust me, it's a huge disappointment when you have to start over because you under-baked it!
- Pro Tip #6: After the pavlova has finished baking turn the oven off and crack it open with a wooden spoon, allowing the pavlova to cool inside the oven. This will help it maintain its shape and allow the outer "shell" that develops to protect the marshmallowy interior.
- It is completely normal for the pavlova to crack during the baking or cooling process; this lends to its rustic appearance. Don't stress about cracks (but do cool it in the oven with the door cracked open to help prevent cracking!), but if cracks form and the pavlova collapses at all during the cooling stage, this means it is under-baked (insert sad face emoticon here).
- Once the pavlova has cooled completely (I usually leave the it in the oven like this for several hours, but you can also leave it overnight), carefully remove it from the oven and slide it off the parchment paper and onto a serving plate.
- Serve with whipped cream and fresh berries!

PAVLOVA
There's something so satisfying about this elegant and naturally gluten-free dessert; it's crunchy, creamy and sweet. We opted for confectioners' sugar in the meringue, making the pavlova extra crisp on the outside and marshmallow-like on the inside. Crowned with a halo of whipped cream and fresh berries, this dessert is truly heaven-sent! Make the components in advance and assemble the pavlova just before serving.

Steps:
- Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 225 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Draw a 9-inch circle on the paper, then flip it over so the drawing is on the underside.
- For the meringue, combine the egg whites, cream of tartar and salt in the very clean bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whisk on medium speed until foamy, about 1 minute. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat until thick and opaque, about 1 minute more. Gradually add the confectioners' sugar, 1/4 cup at a time, and beat until stiff shiny peaks form, about 5 minutes more.
- Spread the meringue on the prepared baking sheet, making sure to stay within the drawn 9-inch circle. Create some shallow dips and swoops (this will hold the whipped cream and berries). Bake until the meringue is dry and crisp on the outside, about 2 hours. Turn off the heat and let the pavlova sit in the warm oven to dry out more, about 1 hour. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. (The meringue can be made up to several hours in advance.)
- Meanwhile, make the whipped cream by whisking together the heavy cream and vanilla in a large bowl with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form, about 3 minutes. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Toss the berries and raspberry jam in a medium bowl until evenly coated and glossy. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes and up to 1 hour.
- To serve, dollop the whipped cream on top of the meringue and spread into an even layer. Pile the macerated berries on top (drizzle any berry juice on top as well). Slice into wedges and serve immediately.
PASSION FRUIT PAVLOVA
Pavlova is named after Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova. She toured Australia and New Zealand in the 1920s, and both countries take credit for inventing the dessert. Some people say it was inspired by her tutu; others say it was created in the spirit of her light, airy style of dancing.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 275˚ and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a plate or cake pan as a guide, trace a 9-inch circle on the parchment with a pencil, then flip over the parchment on the baking sheet (the circle should still be visible); set aside.
- Make the meringue: Whisk the egg whites, 1/4 teaspoon vinegar and the salt in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form, 2 to 4 minutes. Gradually beat in the sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, until dissolved. Increase the mixer speed to medium high and beat until stiff peaks form, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the cornstarch, vanilla and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon vinegar and beat until just combined, 10 to 15 seconds.
- Spread the meringue into a 9-inch round on the prepared baking sheet (use the pencil marking as a guide) and make a shallow well in the center. Transfer to the oven and immediately reduce the oven temperature to 225˚. Bake until crisp and dry, about 2 1/2 hours. (The meringue should still be white or a very pale cream color.) Turn off the oven and open the door slightly (use the handle of a wooden spoon to prop it open about 1/2 inch). Let the meringue cool completely in the oven, about 1 1/2 hours. Carefully remove the meringue from the parchment and transfer to a platter.
- Make the whipped cream: Beat the heavy cream, sugar and vanilla in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes.
- Just before serving, top the meringue: Gently stir the passion fruit pulp to loosen. Top the meringue with the whipped cream and passion fruit. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- To make a pavlova you really need an electric beater and egg whites that are not too fresh. If they are fresh, the pavlova will weep. Heat the oven to 350F. Line a baking tray with baking paper and mark a circle about 6 inches in diameter with a plate. Place the egg whites into the clean bowl of an electric beater. Add the salt and beat until stiff. Slowly add the sugar with the beater running. Beat for about 10 minutes at high speed until the meringue is thick and glossy - it should be thick enough not to fall from the beater. Last of all, whisk in the cornflour and vinegar. Use a big spoon to drop dollops of meringue into the circled area of baking paper. Form into a circle of meringue, making swirls with the spoon on the top rather than flattening to a neat tidy disc. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 5 minutes then reduce oven temperature to 250 degrees F. and cook a further hour. Turn off oven and leave pavlova to cool in the oven. Pavlova can be cooked a couple of days ahead and stored in an airtight container, or frozen. To serve, spoon Berry Compote over pavlova and scatter over mixed berries.

Steps:
- Line a large baking sheet with baking parchment. Using an 18cm round cake tin or plate as a guide, draw a circle on the parchment, then flip it over. Heat the oven to 130C/110C fan/gas ½.
- Rub the reserved lemon half around the inside of a large bowl or stand mixer, then wipe with kitchen paper to remove any butter or oil. Tip in the egg whites and whisk with an electric whisk or the mixer on a low speed until the whites form small, foamy bubbles, about 1-2 mins. Keep going until the mix looks like shaving foam, then add the sugar, 1 tbsp at a time, until it's a thick, glossy meringue. Rub some between your fingers - if you can feel any grains of sugar, keep whisking for a few minutes. Add the cornflour, lemon juice and vanilla, and whisk for another 30 seconds.
- Spoon the meringue onto the baking parchment, into the centre of the circle, and spread it out to the edges with a palette knife. Swipe the knife around the edge, then smooth the top. Bake for 15 mins, then turn the oven down to 100C/80C fan/gas ¼ and bake for 1 hr. Turn the oven off and leave the pavlova inside to cool for at least 2 hrs, or overnight.
- When you're ready to serve, carefully invert the pavlova and peel away the parchment. Don't worry if it cracks a little - it will be covered by the toppings. Toppings to tryWatermelon, lime & mint sugar pavlovaBanana, tahini & salted caramel pavlovaCherry, almond & vanilla custard pavlova
