Preheat oven to 150 c
place 3 egg whites in a bowl and beat until stiff ( a pinch of salt always helps to beat eggs from a fridge)
Gradually ad 1 cup of caster sugar and 3 tbsp water; 1tsp of malt vinegar; 1tsp vanilla essence and 3 teaspoons of Cornflour (mum used Custard pwd once and the marshmellow was yellow).
Keep beating until the mixture stands in stiff peaks. Put baking paper on a large plate(Yes you read me right this stops the meringue from crumbling when shifted).
Spread the mixture into a circular shape and even as possible (about 2 inches thick) What I've seen on UK cooking shows they are far too skinny)
Bake Pavlova for 45 minutes. Then leave to cool in the oven. Remove (already on the serving plate) when cool add Whipped cream and sliced fruit or Strawberries to decorate. Enjoy
