🍓 Summer berry meringue roll
Ingredients
- 5 egg whites
- 250 g sugar
- 1 tsp cornstarch, 1 tsp vinegar
- 300 ml double cream
- 300 g red berries
- 2 tbsp icing sugar
- Flaked almonds
Method
- Whisk the whites, then add the sugar a spoon at a time until the meringue is stiff and glossy.
- Fold in the cornstarch and vinegar: that pair is what gives the marshmallow centre.
- Spread on a lined tray, scatter almonds, and bake 25 min at 160 °C.
- Turn the warm meringue onto a sugared towel and peel the paper away gently.
- Whip the cream with the icing sugar, spread it on, and scatter the berries.
- Roll it up using the towel, without tightening: the cracks are part of the charm.
