Ingredients
  

Meringue

  • 8 egg whites
  • 2 cups caster sugar 440g
  • 1 tbsp cornflour
  • 3 tsp white vinegar 15ml

Raspberry sauce

  • 2 cups frozen raspberries 250g
  • 2 tbsp icing sugar mixture

To assemble and serve

  • 300 ml thickened cream
  • 2 tsp vanilla bean paste
  • 250 g mascarpone 
  • cups honey-roasted macadamia nuts 210g
  • Sweet herbs to decorate optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 100°C fan forced. Line a large rectangular 20cm x 30cm tray with baking paper. 
  • To make the meringue, place the egg whites, caster sugar, cornflour and vinegar in the large bowl of an electric mixer. Beat on high speed for 10-14 minutes until the sugar is dissolved and meringue is thick and shiny. Using a large spoon, dollop 8 large spoonfuls of meringue onto the prepared tray, side-by-side, with two crossways and four lengthways. Bake for 1½  hours, or until the pavlova feels dry and crisp. Turn the oven off, leave the door ajar and allow the pavlova to cool completely in the oven. 
  • To make the raspberry sauce, place the raspberries and icing sugar in a bowl. Roughly smash with a fork. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until ready to serve.
  • To assemble the pavlova, whip the cream and vanilla bean paste with a hand mixer until soft peaks form. Gently fold in the mascarpone. Spoon the cream mixture evenly over the pavlova. Spoon over the raspberry sauce. Top with honey roasted macadamias and herbs. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • If you’re making this on a hot day, chill the bowl and beaters in the freezer for 30 minutes before whipping the cream.
