Ingredients

• 3 large Egg whites
• 150 grams Granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons Cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon White vinegar
• 200 milliliters Heavy whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 150 grams Fresh berries (e.g., strawberries, raspberries, blueberries)
• 10 pieces Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Separate the egg whites from the yolks, ensuring no yolk contaminates the whites.

Step 2

Using an electric mixer, whisk the egg whites in a clean, dry bowl until stiff peaks form.

Step 3

Gradually add the granulated sugar, one tablespoon at a time, whisking well after each addition until the mixture is glossy and the sugar is fully dissolved.

Step 4

Gently fold in the cornstarch and white vinegar until fully combined.

Step 5

Spread the meringue evenly on a large microwave-safe plate lined with parchment paper, creating a rectangular shape about 1 cm thick.

Step 6

Microwave the meringue on high for 2-3 minutes, monitoring closely to prevent overcooking. The meringue should be set but still pliable.

Step 7

Allow the meringue to cool slightly before carefully lifting it off the parchment paper and placing it on a fresh sheet of parchment paper.

Step 8

In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.

Step 9

Spread the whipped cream evenly over the cooled meringue.

Step 10

Scatter the fresh berries over the whipped cream, distributing them evenly.

Step 11

Using the parchment paper to assist, gently roll the pavlova into a log shape, starting from one shorter edge to the other.

Step 12

Transfer the rolled pavlova onto a serving plate, seam side down.

Step 13

Garnish with additional fresh berries and mint leaves, if desired, and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes before serving.

Step 14

Slice and serve chilled for a delightful dessert!
