Fragrant strawberries, crispy meringue & sweet vanilla-scented whipped cream for this dessert which named after the famous ballerina

for meringues
 4 egg whites
 220 g gluten-free icing sugar
 1 tsp vanilla extract
 1 tsp gluten free corn starch or corn flour
 1 tsp gluten-free white vinegar
for whipped cream
 500 g whipping cream
 60 g gluten-free icing sugar
for light jam/sauce
 500 g fresh strawberries
 60 g granulated sugar
 a little water (depending on how juicy the strawberries are)
1

Turn on the oven to 180°C/350°F to preheat.

2

Beat the egg whites in the mixer at low speed until they became firm. Then add the sugar and vanilla and beat again. Finally add the vinegar and the corn starch.

3

Lay a parchment paper in baking pan and with a spoon or a piping bag, form meringue bowls. I, like Hara Harito, made them with a spoon, because I was bored of washing the piping bag.

4

Lower the heat of the oven to 75°C/170°F and bake the meringues for about 85 Minutes.

5

In the meantime, wash the strawberries and cut them in half, leaving some very ripe ones which you will melt with a fork. Put the sugar, strawberries and a little water in a saucepan and heat them over a low heat until they set like a light strawberry jam/sauce. Put this jam/sauce in the fridge to cool down well.

6

Beat the whipping cream with the icing sugar to make a firm whipped cream.

7

Once meringues have cooled down, set up a plate, easily and quickly. Meringue first, then the whipped cream and the strawberry sauce on top.
