Cranberry And Hazelnut Pavlova
- 6 to 8 servings
- 6 egg whites
- 2 1/2 cups caster sugar
- salt
- 1 1/4 cups cranberries whole, dehydrated, and soft, or another fruit to your taste, such as raspberries
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- water as needed
- 1 cup hazelnuts shelled
- 7/8 cup cream fresh
- Preheat oven to 150 degrees Celsius.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the egg whites in a bowl, and whisk with an electric mixer until stiff.
- With the mixer on, gradually add the sugar, and a pinch of salt.
- Put on maximum speed, and mix for 7 to 8 minutes, until the meringue mix is white and glossy.
- Place spoonfuls of meringue on the tray, and assemble as desired. You can make the pavlova in layers, or small spoonfuls, as pictured, to serve individually.
- Bake for about 1 hour until the meringues are crisp on the outside, and slightly humid in the middle.
- In a saucepan, heat the cranberries, sugar, and 2 tablespoons of water to make a fast cranberry jam. If too dray, add 2 more tablespoons of water, so the jam is not too sticky, but rather creamier.
- Beat the cream until stiff, and add 1 or 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar. Beat until creamy.
- Use a knife to coarsely chop the hazelnuts, and toast well in a skillet, stirring constantly.
- To serve, spread the cream on the meringue, cover with jam, and sprinkle with hazelnuts.
