My amazing (gluten free) pavlova recipe

I thought that I'd share my Pavlova recipe with you. For those who don't know a pav is a kiwi (not Australian) desert typically served at Christmas time. the outside is crispy and sweet, while the inside is marshmallowy. Topped with whipped cream and fresh strawberries (which are cheap because they're in season) this is the perfect desert for summer. My recipie has been adapted to be gluten free, as my little sister has acute celiacs disease, meaning that she cant eat any gluten or food produced on factories that produece gluten products (think potato chips and breakfast foods)

I was told that when you make your pave you are not supposed to open the oven at all or make loud noises. This is probably an old wives tale, but no one wants a colapsed pavlova.

You will need:
- eggs
- sugar
- vannilla
-cornflour
- cake mixer or electric wisk and a large bowl
- an oven pre heated to 110 *C
- cookie sheet
- whiped cream (no substatutions)
-stawberries
-chocolate

Seperate four eggs, putting the whites only into the bowl. Wisk with electric wisk or cake mixer with wisk attatchment untill the whites until they form soft peeks the gradually add the sugar (while still beating). Add 1 tsp of vanilla and the same of cornflour. Beat for another 5-10 minutes.
Spread mixtre in a medium sized circle on a cookie sheet. Bake for an hour, then leave it in the oven (which is off) for 90 minutes, cover in cream, strawberries (sliced) and greated chocolate.

enjoy :)
