MERINGUE ICE-CREAM CAKE WITH STRAWBERRIES REMINGTON

Steps:

• Make meringue layers:
• Do not preheat oven. Butter two 10-inch springform pans.
• In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat whites with cream of tartar and a pinch salt until they just hold soft peaks. Add granulated sugar a little at a time, beating, and beat meringue until it is very glossy and holds soft peaks. Fold in vanilla and divide meringue between springform pans, smoothing tops. Put pans in upper and lower thirds of oven and set oven to 275°F. Bake meringue layers, switching position of pans halfway through baking, 45 minutes total. Cool meringue layers in pans on racks and carefully remove sides of pans. Meringue will be crisp on the outside and marshmallowy on the inside. Meringue layers may be made 1 day ahead and kept in an airtight container at room temperature.
• Make strawberry sauce ( about 1 1/2 hours before serving):
• Trim strawberries and quarter lengthwise. In a bowl sprinkle strawberries with granulated sugar and toss to coat. With a potato masher gently crush strawberries until they begin to release their juices, being careful not to crush them to a pulp. Let strawberry sauce stand at room temperature until more juices are released, no more than 1 hour (otherwise sauce will be too liquid). In a bowl beat cream with confectioners' sugar until it just holds stiff peaks and chill while assembling cake. Slightly soften vanilla ice cream. Loosen meringue layers from pan bottoms and put 1 layer on a large cake plate. Working quickly, spread ice cream onto meringue on plate and top with remaining meringue layer. Spread whipped cream decoratively on top of cake and with a slotted spoon transfer 1 spoonful of strawberries from sauce onto center of top of cake.
• Garnish outer edge of top of cake with whole strawberries and serve cake immediately with remaining strawberry sauce on the side.

PRALINE MERINGUE CAKE WITH STRAWBERRIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 140C/fan 120C/gas 1, and line two flat baking sheets with baking parchment. Whizz about two-thirds of the toasted almonds in a food processor until chopped. Don't let them start to look greasy or clump together - they should still be in pieces rather than ground. Roughly chop the remaining third with a knife.
• Stir the sugars together. Using an electric hand whisk, beat the egg whites in a large bowl until stiff, then add the sugar in three batches, beating the mixture back to stiff after each addition. Add the cornflour and vinegar, and keep going until the meringue mixture is glossy and so stiff that the beaters begin to feel heavy when stirring - this can take up to 5 mins.
• Quickly fold in all of the finely chopped nuts and most of the roughly chopped with a spatula, then divide the mixture between the two baking sheets. Spread both into 20cm circles, then scatter the remaining chopped nuts over. Bake for 1 hr, then turn the oven off and leave the meringues inside to cool for at least 1 hr. Leave the oven door closed (this will help to prevent them cracking). Will keep overnight in an airtight container, or freeze, wrapped in cling film, for up to 1 month.
• For the strawberry sauce, purée 600g of the strawberries in a food processor or blender. Press through a sieve to remove the seeds, then sweeten with 2 tbsp of the icing sugar. Can be made up to 1 day ahead. Sieve the remaining icing sugar into the double cream, whip until it just holds its shape, then carefully swirl through two-thirds of the sauce.
• To serve, slide one of the meringues off its baking parchment onto a serving plate, then spread over half the cream. Place the second meringue on top, pile over the rest of the cream and top with the remaining strawberries. Dust with a little more icing sugar if you like, and serve the leftover strawberry sauce alongside.

COFFEE MERINGUE-ICE CREAM CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Trace a 10-inch circle on each of 2 pieces of parchment. Turn over parchment, and place each on a baking sheet. Coat parchment with cooking spray. Place egg whites and sugar in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water. Stir until sugar dissolves and mixture is warm, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat. Add fine salt and cream of tartar, and beat with a mixer on high speed until stiff, glossy peaks form and meringue is almost cool, about 8 minutes.
• Using the traced circles as a guide, gently mound slightly more than half the meringue on 1 piece of parchment and the remainder on the other. Drizzle 1/2 teaspoon coffee extract over the smaller mound, and spread meringue into a flat disk, leaving the edge slightly swoopy and the top smooth. Spread out remaining mound into a slightly thicker disk, using a swirling motion, until it is about 1 1/2 inches away from edge of circle. Drizzle remaining coffee extract over second disk, and swirl in extract with a spoon, leaving some of it very distinct and spreading meringue to edge of circle. Bake meringues until crisp all the way through, about 4 hours. Remove from oven, and let cool completely, about 1 hour.
• Raise oven temperature to 325 degrees. Toss together almonds and 1 teaspoon sea salt on a baking sheet. Bake, stirring occasionally, until nuts are deep golden brown, about 18 minutes. Let cool completely. Coarsely grind coffee beans in a spice grinder.
• Beat ice cream with a mixer on medium-low speed until slightly softened and mostly smooth, about 30 seconds. Add almonds and ground coffee, and beat until just incorporated. Spread ice cream mixture on flat meringue; sprinkle with remaining sea salt. Top with swirled thicker meringue. Freeze at least 20 minutes or (wrapped in plastic wrap) up to 6 hours. Let sit at room temperature 5 minutes. Cut into wedges, and serve.
