Well, yet another recipe from the Summer series of recipes from Lakeside Joondalup and I thought I would throw this one in pre Christmas as it is pretty amazing, and totally delicious. As you probably know, no Christmas table would be complete without Australia’s favourite dessert, Pavlova. This version uses brown sugar to give a different texture and an amazing caramel flavour. You may never go back to good old white sugar pav again! I didn’t use a thermomix, other than for the cream. I have never seen the need to spend hours cleaning the bowl, milling the sugar, re cleaning the bowl, crossing my fingers and toes and then still hoping for the best at the end of the meringue beating when you can simply whack the lot into a bowl, whip out a set of hand beaters and in less time than it takes to clean and dry the Thermo bowl you have a pav in the oven. Personally, I will never make a pav with anything but brown sugar again…actually, I may try one with coconut palm sugar; hold that thought!
Merry KISmas...hope you have a yummy one!
I will see you all next year…No more recipes for a wee while as I am about to take a break and when I say break, I mean work like a slave on my new website. Go get my books from my online store if you dont have them already…we will start shipping all orders again on January 7th. Be safe!
