Ready In: 24 hrs 30 mins
Serves: 8-12
Ingredients
- 150 g shelled hazelnuts
- 425 g caster sugar
- 6 egg whites
- 450 ml double cream
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 230 C or 450 F and line a terrine dish (about 12 x 3 inches) with wax paper.
- It's also a good idea at this point to make sure there is room in the freezer for your dish.
- Warm the hazelnuts in the oven for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown.
- Skin and roughly chop.
- Heat one third of the sugar in a heavy pan, until it starts to carmelise.
- Stir in the warm hazelnuts and pour onto an oiled tray.
- Leave to cool and set.
- When cool, crush into small pieces using a rolling pin.
- Meanwhile, whip the egg whites and the rest of the sugar together to make a stiff meringue.
- In a separate bowl, whip the cream to stiff peaks and then fold together with the meringue and crushed hazelnut mixture.
- Fill the terrine dish to the top and place in the freezer until hard-- at least 24 hours.
- To serve, remove from the freezer and from the dish.
- Slice and serve on top of a pool of strawberry or raspberry sauce.
