Ingredients:
(Makes 6)
4 egg whites
A pinch of salt
175g of caster sugar
Red food colouring
¼ tsp of vanilla extract
Method:
Pre heat the oven to 140?C and line a baking tray with baking paper
Put the egg whites into a large spotlessly clean mixing bowl with the pinch of salt
Whisk until soft peaks form then gradually add the caster sugar until stiff peaks form
Add in the vanilla extract
Using a large spoon dollop the meringues onto the baking sheet leaving space between them
Place the food colouring in the bowl and dip a skewer into it
Swirl the skewer into the meringues to give a ripple effect
Bake for 30 minutes or until the base of the meringues is hard and then switch of the oven
Leave to cool in the oven if possible
Sandwich two of the swirls together with whipped cream and any other filling you like such as lemon or orange curd or fruit.
