Ingredients
Rosewater Meringues
- ½ tsp cream of tartar
- 2 tsp rosewater
- 1 ½ cups (330g) caster sugar
- Red food colouring
- Whipped cream, coulis and berries to serve
Raspberry Coulis
- 125g punnet fresh raspberries
- 1 tbsp caster sugar
METHOD:
Rosewater Meringues
- Preheat oven to 100°C (fan-forced). Grease and line two large baking trays with baking paper
- Using a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat egg whites, cream of tartar and rosewater on medium-high speed until foamy. Continue beating, adding the sugar 1 tbsp at a time, until mixture holds stiff peaks. This should take 8-10 minutes. Continue beating for a further 1-2 minutes or until sugar has dissolved
- Using a large metal spoon, dollop meringue mixture onto prepared trays to make 6 large mounds. Use a tablespoon to shape the meringues using a swirling motion
- Dip a wooden skewer into food colouring and gently swirl pink dye into each meringue to create a marble effect if desired. Bake for 2 hours, or until crisp. Turn off oven. Cool meringues completely in oven, with door ajar
- To serve, dollop with whipped cream and top with coulis and extra berries
Coulis
- To make the coulis, process raspberries and sugar until smooth. Set aside for serving.
