directions

1. Heat over to 120C/fan 100C/gas 1/2 and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Use the base of a 20cm cake tin as a guide to draw a circle on each piece of paper.
3. Beat the egg whites until the stand in stiff peaks, then add 2 tbsp of the caster sugar and whisk until the mixture stiffens up again.
4. Fold in the rest of the sugar and cardamom using a large metal spoon.
5. Swirl the meringue mixture around the circle template.
6. Bake for 75-90 minutes until crisp and slightly golden and the parchment peels away easily.
7. At this point, you can keep it in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for a month.
8. Make the yogurt sorbet filling by melting the sugar in 100ml water over a medium heat until it all dissolves.

10. Meanwhile, put the mango and lime juice in a food processor and whizz to a smooth puree.
11. Stir the puree and yogurt into the syrup.
12. Start your ice cream machine and pour in the sorbet mixture.
13. Leave to churn for 15-30 minutes until the mixture is frozen but still soft and creamy.
14. Fold in the raspberries, then spoon into a plastic container and freeze for up to one month.
15. When you want to assemble the dish, take the sorbet and meringues out of the freezer 2 hours before serving.
16. After 45mins-1 hour the sorbet should be soft but not runny.
17. Put one of the meringues on a serving plate and scoop the sorbet on top of it.
18. Put the second meringue on top, smooth around the outside with a flat edged knife and return to the freezer until ready to serve but don't keep it in there more than an hour.
