Bliss....

• Ready In: 1 hr
• Serves: 6-8

Ingredients

• 4  egg whites
• 1  cup caster sugar
• 1 1⁄2 cups  cream, whipped
• 3  strawberries
• 2  kiwi fruits

Directions

1. Preheat oven to slow 150C degrees.
2. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
3. Draw a 20cm circle on the paper.
4. Beat the egg whites in a large dry bowl until soft peaks form.
5. Gradually add the sugar, beating well after each addition.
6. Continue beating until the mixture is thick and glossy and the sugar has completely disolved.
7. Spread meringue mixture onto tray inside the marked circle.
8. Shape meringue by running a palette or flat-bladed knife up and down the edge of the meringue, making furrows around the side.
9. This will strengthen the sides, stopping them from collapsing.
10. Bake for 40 minutes.
11. Turn the oven off and allow the meringue to cool completely in the oven.
12. Whip the cream.
13. Halve the strawberries and peel and slice the kiwifruit.
