1 cup caster sugar (slightly finer than granulated sugar but not as fine as powdered sugar)
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
1 teaspoon vinegar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
METHOD
Beat egg whites at room temperature until stiff and forming peaks. Beat in sugar, then vinegar and vanilla essence. Lastly beat in sieved cornstarch.
Place on round baking sheet covered in foil.
Cook in oven at 150/300 for 45-50 minutes until
golden and crispy on top.
Turn over onto plate for serving
and peel off foil.
TO DECORATE:
fresh cream
fresh or tinned strawberries
chocolate flakes
Cover pavlova with fresh cream. Add chocolate, then fruit.
This recipe is versatile with toppings and really you can use the fruit of your choice - fresh or tinned or add chopped nuts. I didn't have strawberries when I made this one so used tinned oranges.

NOW COMES THE FUN!!!
Add whatever you like.
I like to use mandarin oranges and mini
marshmallows with orange Jello
Mary said... she used lemon Jello and fresh blueberries.
I used a mixture of blackberries/raspberries& blueberries
with cherry Jello when Gail and Richard came to visit us.
Canned fruit that is drained works well too.
Fresh strawberries.... Ummmm
Use your imagination! : )
No onions please. Heeee heee just kidding!
Note: I have found that this sets up better if you put it in individual dessert cups or bowls. I use little glass custard dishes. It works in a big bowl but just doesn't seem as nice to me.
