  • Preparation: 15 min
  • Cooking: 45 min
  • Makes: 1 serving (201 g)
  • Difficulty: Medium
  • Diets: Vegetarian, Gluten-free, Dairy-free
  • Contains: alcohol, egg

Ingredients

  • 90 g Egg whites, raw
  • 90 g Sugar
  • 20 g Water
  • 1 g Vanilla extract

Method

  1. Melt two-thirds of the sugar in a dry pan over medium heat until it turns an amber caramel, then carefully add the water (it will spatter) and swirl to loosen it into a caramel sauce; pour most of it into a small mould, tilting to coat the base and sides, and reserve the rest.
  2. Whisk the egg whites to soft peaks, then whisk in the remaining sugar and vanilla a little at a time until thick and glossy.
  3. Drizzle a spoonful of the reserved warm caramel into the meringue and fold through very gently, just enough to streak it.
  4. Spoon the mixture into the caramel-lined mould and smooth the top.
  5. Set the mould in a roasting tin, pour in hot water to come halfway up the sides, and bake at 160 °C (320 °F) for 40-45 minutes until risen and set but still a little wobbly in the centre.
  6. Cool completely, then chill for at least 2 hours before unmoulding onto a plate so the caramel sauce runs down the sides.
