  • Preparation: 15 min
  • Makes: 1 serving (133 g)
  • Difficulty: Easy
  • Diets: Vegetarian, Dairy-free, Gluten-free
  • Contains: egg

Ingredients

  • 33 g Egg whites, raw
  • 60 g Lingonberries, raw or frozen
  • 40 g Sugar

Method

  1. The cream is not cooked, so use very fresh egg whites, or pasteurised ones, and a bowl and whisk that are completely clean and free of grease.
  2. Pick over the lingonberries, rinse and drain them well; thaw frozen ones and pat them dry.
  3. Whisk the egg white with an electric mixer until it holds soft peaks.
  4. Add the lingonberries and the sugar and keep whisking at high speed for 10-15 minutes, until the cream is thick, glossy, pale pink and holds firm peaks; the berries break up as you whisk.
  5. Spoon into a glass bowl or dishes and serve straight away, while it is light and airy, on its own or with thin crisp biscuits.
