Beat Egg Whites and Caster Sugar:
In a mixing bowl, beat the egg whites and caster sugar together until stiff peaks form. This step is crucial for achieving the desired light and fluffy texture of the pavlova. -
Spread onto Microwave Tray:
Place a piece of lunch paper on a microwave tray and spread the beaten egg white and sugar mixture onto it, forming a round shape. Ensure an even thickness to facilitate even cooking. -
Microwave Cooking:
Cook the egg white mixture on high in the microwave for 3 minutes. Note that the cooking time may vary depending on the wattage of your microwave. For reference, an 850-watt microwave was used for this recipe. -
Cooling:
Allow the cooked egg white sugar mixture to cool completely. This step ensures that it is ready for the next layers and prevents the cream from melting upon assembly. -
Prepare Browned Coconut:
While the pavlova base is cooling, prepare the browned coconut by spreading it evenly on another piece of lunch paper or baking paper. The coconut adds a delicious flavor and texture to the dessert. -
Layering:
Once cooled, carefully transfer the cooked egg white sugar mixture onto the prepared browned coconut layer. This serves as the base for your rolled pavlova. -
Spread with Whipped Cream and Fruit Mixture:
Generously spread whipped cream and fruit mixture over the surface of the cooked egg white sugar mixture. You can customize the fruit mixture according to your preferences, opting for seasonal fruits or your favorite berries. -
Rolling:
Using the lunch paper as a guide, carefully roll the assembled pavlova, similar to rolling up a towel. Take your time to ensure a tight roll, which will prevent the filling from oozing out. -
Serve and Enjoy:
Once rolled, transfer the pavlova onto a serving platter and slice it into portions. Serve immediately and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures in this unique dessert.
Storage:
If you have leftovers or wish to prepare the pavlova in advance, it can be frozen for up to three days. Simply wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil before placing it in the freezer. To serve, thaw the pavlova in the refrigerator for an hour before enjoying.
With its airy texture, creamy filling, and burst of fruity goodness, Rolled Microwave Pavlova is sure to become a favorite among your family and friends.
