Pavlova With ‘Tea and Scones’
Ingredients
- 2 tbs cornflour
- 2 1/2 cups (550g) caster sugar
- 8 egg whites
- 2 tsp cream of tartar
- 2 Madura English Breakfast teabags + one extra for decoration
- 600ml thickened cream
- 1 cup (320g) strawberry jam
- 3/4 cup (240g) raspberry jam
- 1 1/4 cups (300g) sour cream
- 400g fresh strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries – the choice is yours
Method
Preheat oven to 150°C. Line a large baking tray with baking paper. Divide evenly the cornflour between two small bowls. Add 2 tbsp caster sugar to each bowl and toss to combine. Set both bowls aside, then weigh out 360g sugar and divide evenly between two more bowls. In two batches, place 4 egg whites and 1 tsp cream of tartar in a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and whisk to soft peaks. With the motor running, slowly add 1 bowl of sugar, 1 tbs at a time, whisking constantly until thick, glossy and sugar dissolves. Fold in 1 bowl cornflour mixture. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside. Clean mixer and dry thoroughly. Repeat with remaining egg white, sugar and cornflour mixture, then combine both meringues. Spoon meringue onto prepared tray and use a palette knife to create a 30cm x 40cm rectangle. Reduce oven to 100°C and bake for 1 hour 20 minutes or until crisp and dry.

Madura English Breakfast A delicious black tea bursting with colour and energy - available in loose-leaf, teabags and leaf infusers.
Turn off oven and leave in the oven with the door slightly ajar, for 3-4 hours to cool completely. Meanwhile, place tea bags, cream and remaining 1/2 cup (110g) sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. When the cream starts to bubble around edges, remove from the heat and set aside to cool. Transfer to a bowl and cover surface with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight to infuse. To make the sauce, place strawberry and raspberry jams in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to the boil, stirring constantly, then strain through a fine sieve. Set aside to cool completely. To assemble, remove tea bags from cream and discard. Using a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whisk the cream to stiff peaks, then fold through the sour cream.
