Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 2, 150°C, fan 130°C. Draw a 23cm (9cm) circle on a sheet of nonstick baking paper.
- To make the meringue, whisk the egg whites in a large bowl until stiff peaks form. Whisk in the caster sugar, one tablespoon at a time. The mixture should look firm and glossy. Finally, whisk in the vinegar, cornflour and rosewater.
- Use a little of the meringue mixture to stick the marked baking paper onto the baking sheet. Spoon the meringue onto the baking sheet, using the circle as a guide. Make a dip in the centre to create a ‘wall’ around the outside.
- Cook the meringue for one hour then turn off the oven and leave to cool for 8 hours or ideally overnight.
- To make the filling, whisk together the icing sugar, double cream and the vanilla essence. Pile into the middle of the meringue shell and top with the strawberries. Serve immediately.
