Strawberry Pavlova Recipe by Chef Kevin Dundon

This pavlova recipe is the perfect dessert for the season. Use any variation of fresh summer berries such as raspberries, blueberries or blackberries.

Serves 6

Ingredients:

180g or 6 egg whites
360g caster sugar
½ tsp cornflour
½ tsp vanilla essence
½ tsp white wine vinegar
240ml cream-very softly whipped
Wexford strawberries
Blueberries
Cherries

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 110C/225F and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2. Place the egg whites into a spotlessly clean mixing bowl and beat on a light speed until beginning to become stiff, then while beating slowly pour the caster sugar onto the frothy egg whites, a little at the time.
3. When all the sugar has been incorporated, add the vanilla essence, cornflour, vinegar and give one final whisk on high speed until glossy and stable.
4. Spread all the mixture out on the baking sheet and bake for 1.30 hour until the meringue mixture is very firm to touch but still soft in the middle. I normally leave mine to cool in the oven with the door ajar.
5. When cooled, and just before serving, transfer to a serving plate and spoon over the softly whipped cream.
6. Add the fruit on top of the cream and serve immediately.
