Pavlova

[dede]

This recipe is from the Thermomix website. I haven't tried this yet but will be giving it a go soon.

Pavlova
Ingredients
6 egg whites
220g sugar
2 tsp white vinegar
2 Tbsp cornflour

Methods
Place sugar into bowl and pulverise 10 seconds + Turbo. Remove and set aside.

Place butterfly (optional) and egg whites in TM bowl and set for 10 minutes at 37°C on speed 3 ½. At approximately 4 minutes, add the vinegar and then at 6 minutes (approx 1 minute for each egg white) check to see if egg whites are stiff. If so, commence sieving into whole in lid the icing sugar and then the cornflour.  This will take you to 10 minutes, maybe a little longer.

Once this process is complete, spoon mixture onto a baking tray lined with baking paper, place in oven and cook for approx 2-2.5hrs on 120°C.

Once cooked leave in oven to cool overnight.

smholmes - I made this ages ago and it turned out fantastic.  Planning on making it again for a dinner party on Friday.  Going to use the left over egg yolks to make Portuguese Custard tarts.  Yum!

dede - I did try this but it failed for me. Must try again though. The egg whites whipped up beautifully but once I added sugar it all collapsed on me (maybe I added to quickly).  I still cooked it in a cake tin and it was yummy but not the same. Must try again when I have heaps of eggs to use up.

lozzylooloo - Have never made pav before so today I decided to give this one a crack in my thermie.
Followed recipe pretty closely, using egg whites that had been kicking in the fridge for a few days.  Everything came together beautifully Smiley
Had read some of the linked hints, and I think that helped a lot.
However, I decided that since my oven runs hot, I would drop the temperature.  Probably shouldn't have done that - the outside didn't go crunchy, it was just kind of chewy?? Also all sank and spread slightly when I tuned oven off (even though I left it to cool in there with door cracked).
So, next time I will stick with the recommended heat and then reassess if it starts overcooking Wink
Still very edible - a perfect mushy pav centre, maybe a tad too sweet for my taste, but ok if covering with cream and fruit rather than sweet stuff.
Very stoked with myself, and will definitely make again - but not too soon, since I just learned DH doesn't like pav, so this one may be mostly destined for me!!! Oh dear.

Thanks! My pav didn't work so I'll give this one a shot.
