Traditional Australian Pavlova Recipe

En Australie, on ne songerait pas à terminer le repas de Christmas sans un dessert esthétique et savoureux appelé le Pavlova. Le nom de ce dessert rappelle l’hommage d’un pâtissier pour une grande danseuse russe, Anna Pavlova, venue en Australie pour une tournée de spectacles, dans les années 20.

The ingredients

To make this delicious but really simple recipe, you will need the following ingredients: one banana, one kiwi, a few strawberries, 4 egg whites, 220 grams of caster sugar, 1 tbsp. cornstarch, 1 tsp. vanilla extract, 1 tsp. white vinegar, 20 dl of whipped cream and two squares of 70% dark chocolate.

Preparation

First, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, then gradually add the sugar, vanilla, and vinegar. Mix until smooth.

Spread this mixture in a dish lined with a sheet of parchment paper (salted) and sprinkled with cornstarch.

Bake in a preheated oven at 150°C for approximately 1 hour 15 minutes, then leave to cool.

Then decorate with whipped cream and arrange the chopped fruit on top. Sprinkle grated chocolate shavings over the surface before serving in a champagne glass.
