Directions
My N Z Pavlova,Crunchy on the outside and marshmallow on the inside. A real NZ icon. I have been making this recipe for 35 years. A real family recipe to share. We have this at all our family gatherings especially Christmas Dinner. (It’s summer here then!) The secret to this Pavlova is the time taken to mix in the sugar. Don’t hurry!,Love this Pav, my efforts have always been a bit hit and miss in the Pav department but this recipe always works for me. Delicious with Lemon Curd. Thanks Jen T,love this recipe i make this often and always get great compliments!

Another Idea Is to Fill Centre With Either Lemon Curd (made from the Yolks) or Chocolate Mousse. Then Pipe Rosettes of Cream Around the Edge of Filling. I Have Also Used Instant Puddings For the Filling Made With Half Milk & Half Cream to Give a Thicker Mix and Then Decorated With Fruit to Match Flavour. |
