1 pinch of salt
1 tsp white wine vinegar
1/4 oz cornflour
14 oz caster sugar
1 tsp vanilla paste
LIME CURD:
5 egg yolks

CHANTILLY CREAM
1.5 cups heavy cream

2 tsp powdered sugar
Instructions
PAVLOVA:
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
Put the egg whites into a bowl and whisk, adding the salt as you go. Whisk to soft peaks.
Whisk in the vinegar and slowly sift in the cornflour, still whisking.
Add the caster sugar slowly, continuing to whisk until the meringue thickens. Add the vanilla paste and whisk to stiff peaks.
Spoon the meringue into 2 matching circles on baking sheets lined with parchment paper, and form into Pavlova shapes. Bake for about 2 ½ hours until dry. Turn off the oven and leave the pavlova in there to cool.
Remove from the oven, strip off the parchment and cool on a wire rack.
To make the Chantilly Cream, lightly whip the cream and fold in vanilla and powdered sugar
