Grans Pavolva Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Preheat the oven to very hot (240'C / 475'F / Gas 9) and lightly grease a 32 x 28cm baking tray. Line the tray with a very wet piece of greaseproof baking paper.
  • Place the egg whites and salt in a mixing bowl. Using electric beaters, beat until stiff peaks form. Add the sugar gradually, beating constantly after each addition. Beat until the mixture is thick and glossy and all the sugar has dissolved.
  • Using a metal spoon, fold in the cornflour and vinegar.
  • Spoon the mixture into a mound on the tray. Lightly flatten the top of the pavolva and smooth the sides as best as you can. (It should be in a cake shape about 2.5cm / 1 inch high)
  • Reduce the oven to warm (160'C / 315'F / Gas 2/3). Bake the pavlova for 1 hour, or until it is pale cream and crisp.
  • Remove the pavlova from the oven while it is still warm, then carefully turn upside down onto a plate and peel away the paper. (If the pavlova is cold, the paper will stick. It may crack slightly underneath, but this is normal) Leave pavlova to cool.
  • Spread the soft centre of the pavlova with whipped cream. Decorate with the passionfruit, kiwis and strawberries (or any other fruit you like)
