Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 140C/gas 1/ fan 120C. Line a large baking sheet with non-stick parchment.
  2. Blend the vinegar, vanilla and cornflour to a paste. Whisk the egg whites until stiff. Gradually whisk in the sugars, adding a little paste with each addition, until a thick marshmallowy meringue is formed.
  3. Spread it out to a 20cm circle on the baking sheet, swirling the knife to make peaks. Scatter over the nuts and bake for 1 hour, then turn off the oven and leave it to cool.
  4. Sieve 100g/4oz strawberries into a bowl. Stir in the cassis. Whip the cream softly. Slice half the strawberries and fold into the cream. Then swirl in 3 tbsp sauce.
  5. Put the pavlova on a flat plate. Spoon in the cream, scatter on the strawberries, drizzle with sauce.

    Holly it is really easy to sieve strawberries, just put them in a sieve and with the back of a spoon just press down on them till you are left with the pulp and in the dish underneath will be the juice.

    I have made and developed this recipe for my food technology GCSE, and it has worked really well. After all my developments it now has two layers, blueberries, amaretti biscuits, almonds and drizzled dark and white chocolate. Delicious every time.
