Ingredients for 8 servings
- 175 gr of powdered sugar
- 3 egg whites
- 1 pinch of salt
- if you have a siphon: 1 bottle of light cream and a sachet of vanilla sugar.
- Or a can of whipped cream.
- Topping: 500 gr of strawberries, 1 mango and a few mint leaves
If possible in the morning or the day before, prepare the Pavlova.
1- Preheat the oven to 120°.
2- Whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form, then slowly add the sugar when they start to become firm.
3- Place 2 food rings of different sizes on parchment paper, arrange the meringue in a ring shape, you can rework it slightly with a fork for a more aesthetic look.
4- Bake for 1 hour 15 minutes.
5- Remove the meringue and let it cool (be careful, it's fragile!). You can remove the parchment paper by gently sliding a large kitchen knife between the paper and the meringue.
6- 2 hours before serving, put the light cream and the vanilla sugar sachet in the siphon in the refrigerator. Prepare the fruits but do not mix them.
7- At the last moment, you can arrange the whipped cream in the center of the ring, then the fruits and a few mint leaves. (Generally, I don't put all the fruits on the meringue, I bring them separately to the table).
For the story: this dessert was created for a Russian ballerina whose name it bears. Enjoy your meal.
