Origin of dish: France
Type of cooking: Oven

Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 180 minutes

Ingredients (makes 2 or 3) :

3 large egg whites
175g equal quantities of caster sugar and icing sugar, sifted together
Pinch salt
1 tsp Douwe Egberts Pure Gold coffee, sifted finely using a tea strainer
1 tbsp chopped walnuts (optional)

Method:

1. In a grease free mixing bowl, using an electric whisk, whisk up the egg whites until the mixture stands in stiff glossy peaks.

2. Gradually fold in the sugars and salt a table spoon at the time. Continue whisking until very stiff and shiny.

3. Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Fold the coffee into the meringue to give a marbled effect, Using two spoons make either 2 or 3 even sized meringues and sprinkle over nuts if using.

4. Bake in the oven at 110°C or gas mark 1/4 for 2- 3 hours until crisp and firm, (the longer you cook them the crispier they will be in the centre) but still white in colour. Cool on a tray. Peel off the parchment paper and serve, Store the cooked meringues in an airtight box.
