Ingredients
Ingredients
- 10 Egg whites
- Large pinch salt
- 2.5 cups Organic Sugar
- 5 teaspoons Arrowroot Powder
- 2.5 teaspoons De La Rosa Organic Red or White Wine Vinegar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla bean extract
- 725 ml Thickened cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla bean extract
- 2-3 Punnets of raspberries we used 2
- 1 Large pomegranate or 2 small ones
- 2 teaspoons Dried rose petals food grade, organic if possible
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
- Line three baking trays with baking paper or tin foil and draw a 20cm circle on each.
- Wipe mixing bowl with vinegar and then beat egg whites with salt until soft peaks form.
- Add sugar in five batches (1/2 cup at a team), beating thoroughly between each addition until meringue is thick and shiny. Try holding the bowl upside down – if the meringue doesn’t move, it’s thick enough!
- Add cornflour, vinegar and vanilla extract and gently fold in.
- Divide mixture equally between three baking trays and spread gently to fill in the circle shape (an offset spatula is great for this). Smooth the top and the sides.
- Place the trays in the oven and immediately reduce heat to 120 degrees Celsius. Bake pavlovas for 90 minutes and then turn off heat, leaving them to cool in the oven.
- When ready to assemble, whip cream with 1 teaspoon vanilla bean extract.
- Take one pavlova and spread with a third of the cream, leaving a 2 cm gap around the edge. Decorate with a handful of berries and pomegranate seeds, concentrating the berries at the sides and the pomegranate seeds in the middle). Repeat with two other layers.
- Add a few extra raspberries and pomegranate seeds on the sides and then sprinkle rose petals over the whole thing, letting some fall over the berries and pomegranate seeds and some on the sides.
