Serves 6

Ingredients

3 egg whites, at room temperature

Pinch salt

1 teaspoon vanilla essence

3/4 cup caster sugar

2 teaspoons cornflour

2 eggs

2 egg yolks

3/4 cup caster sugar

1/3 cup chilled, unsalted butter

3 tablespoons passionfruit pulp

200g cream

1/2 cup Greek yoghurt

1 cup blueberries

Method

1 Preheat oven to 110°C. Using a 10cm cookie cutter, draw 4 circles on a sheet of baking paper. Flip the paper and place ink-side down on a baking tray.

2 Place the egg whites, salt and vanilla essence into the bowl of an electric mixer and beat on high for 5 minutes or until soft peaks form. Combine sugar and cornflour and gradually add to eggs whisking until sugar has dissolved and mixture is thick and glossy. Using a spatula evenly spoon mixture and spread out over circles.

3 Cook for 1 hour or until the meringues are crisp. Turn the oven off and keep door slightly adjar with a wooden spoon allowing to cool slowly over a 2 hour period or until cooled completely.

4 For the passionfruit curd, place eggs, yolks and caster sugar in a medium sized saucepan and whisk for 1 minute or until smooth.

5 Place over low heat and add butter and 2 tablespoons of passionfruit pulp. Whisk mixture constantly for 3-4 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely before transferring to a container and storing in fridge.

6 For the whipped cream add cream into the bowl of an electric mixer and whisk for 2 minutes or until soft peaks form. Fold in yoghurt with spatula and set aside, covered in fridge.

7 To serve, spread cream mixture over the tops of the meringues. Top with passionfruit curd and blueberries. Serve immediately.
