Microwave Meringues image

From Phil Vickery's Proof of the Pudding. These are a little sweeter than regular meringues and are not especially pretty, but are fine for using in recipes where they get crushed up. Not yet tried.

Time 9m

Yield 8-10 meringues

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 large egg white
golden icing sugar (280-350g)

Steps:

  • Lightly beat the egg with a fork and gradually mix in enough icing sugar to make a stiff dough. The dough needs to be pliable but not sticky.
  • Mould into small balls the size of a walnut.
  • Cover a large microwaveable plate with a circle of baking parchment.
  • Arrange four of the meringue balls on top of the parchment, placing them a good distance apart from one another.
  • Cook on high power (700w) for about 1 - 1.5 mins or until the meringues are puffed up and firm.
  • Repeat with the remaining mixture.
  • Allow to cool.
