Does any one else have >different recipes? Here's some different ones you could try. I especially like the Lemon curd version. MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Aussie: Kingfisher Pavlova Categories: Fruits, Desserts, Aussi Yield: 8 servings MMMMM--------------------THREE-BERRY COMPOTE------------------------- 6 Egg whites 1 1/2 c Granulated sugar 2 tb White vinegar 1 ts Vanilla 1/4 ts Cream of tartar 2 tb Cornstarch 3 c Raspberries 1 tb Icing sugar 2 c Strawberries, quartered 2 c Blueberries In bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in sugar, one-third at a time, until stiff and glossy. Beat in vinegar, vanilla and cream of tartar. Using fine sieve, shake cornstarch over top; fold in gently. On parchment paper-lined baking sheets, form meringue into 8 ovals about 3-1/2 inches long. Bake in 275F 140C oven for 50-60 minutes or until meringues are crispy outside but still soft inside. Let cool. [Meringues can be stored, uncovered, at room temperature for up to 8 hours.] Three-Berry Compote: Pure 1 cup of the raspberries; pressing through sieve into sauce pan. Stir in icing sugar; cook over low heat just until heated through. Stir in strawberries, blueberries and remaining raspberries. Let cool. [Compote can be refrigerated in airtight container for up to 1 day.] To serve, place 1 meringue on each plate. Spoon compote next to meringue. Serve with whipped cream and a macadamia nut or almond praline, and fresh mint.

Beat egg whites until stiff. Add 4 oz of the sugar and continue beating for one minute or until the mixture is stiff and glossy. Fold in remaining sugar, cornflour, vanilla and vinegar. Spoon 1/3 of the meringue mixture onto the baking sheet and spread out into the shape of the circle. Put remainder of the mixture in a piping bag and pipe around the edge of the circle. Bake for 1 1/2 hours (yes 90 minutes) until firm and very lightly browned. Allow to cool completely. Whip the cream and fold in the sugar and the liqueur. Fill the meringue case with the cream, and then pile the fruit salad in the centre on top of it.
