Hot Water Pavlova Recipes

EASY PAVLOVA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Draw a 9-inch circle on the parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. Gradually add in the sugar, about 1 tablespoon at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat until thick and glossy. Gently fold in vanilla extract, lemon juice, and cornstarch.
• Spoon mixture inside the circle drawn on the parchment paper. Working from the center, spread mixture toward the outside edge, building edge slightly. This should leave a slight depression in the center.
• Bake for 1 hour. Cool on a wire rack.
• In a small bowl, beat heavy cream until stiff peaks form; set aside. Remove the paper, and place meringue on a flat serving plate. Fill the center of the meringue with whipped cream, and top with kiwifruit slices.

Steps:

• Put the egg whites, caster sugar, cream of tartar (if using), vanilla essence, vinegar and cornflour into a large bowl, begin to beat on low speed. Increase the speed to maximum, adding the boiling water slowly and continue beating for approximately 10 minutes until the mixture is thick stiff and glossy.
• Mould the mixture into 6 x 9cm rounds on a baking paper-lined baking tray.
• Place into 180 deg C oven and lower the temperature immediately to 120 deg C for 30 minutes. Turn the oven off and allow them to sit in oven with door completely closed for at least 6 hours.
• Notes: when you spoon mixture onto tray, make small hollows in centre to sit cream/fruit into once baked.
• I've also made this as one big pavlova with great results.
• Never store an uncreamed pavlova in the fridge. They will keep in a tightly sealed container at room temperature, or individually wrapped, for up to a week if your house is not humid.
• Creamed pavlova leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days.
