HOME | AGA LIVING | RECIPES
INGREDIENTS:
For the Base:
3 large egg whites
A pinch of salt
175g (6 oz) caster sugar
½ tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp white wine vinegar
1 tsp cornflour
For the Filling
300 ml (10 fl oz) double cream
350g (12 oz) fresh fruit – sliced kiwi fruit, peaches, strawberries or raspberries, or a mixture of two contrasting fruits
Mint or raspberry leaves, to decorate
Serves 6.
Use a pencil to draw an 18 cm (7 inch) circle on a sheet of baking parchment and place upside down on a cold plain shelf. Alternatively, use a circle of Bake-O-Glide as a larger template. Whisk the egg whites with the salt in a grease-free bowl until stiff. Add the sugar a spoonful at a time whilst still whisking. Finally: mix the vanilla extract with the vinegar and cornflour and whisk in. Spread the mixture out to form a base with an outer crown.
