Directions

You could buy the meringues to make this super easy to prepare. If you can get good strawberries feel free to use them instead of the raspberries, if you do reduce the amount of sugar by half.

Preheat the oven to 275℉ (140℃).

In a bowl beat the egg whites until frothy using an electric or stand mixer with a whisk attachment. While beating add the sugar one tablespoon at a time until all the sugar has been added.

Continue to beat until thick, stiff and very glossy, they should be like shaving cream then beat in the lemon juice.

Spoon onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a Silpat silicon baking mat. Create size 2 inch sized dollops.

Bake for 1 hour or until crisp.

Break meringues into large and small pieces.

Set aside.

To make the raspberry sauce:

Combine raspberries with lemon juice and sugar in a food processor and process until smooth. If desired force through a sieve to remove the seeds.

To finish and serve:

In a large bowl, fold together raspberries (reserving some for garnish), whipping cream, raspberry sauce (reserving some for garnish) and crumbled meringue (reserving some for garnish).

Place a spoonful of raspberry mixture onto the middle of a plate or use a ring mould for a more fancy presentation.

Garnish with more crumbled meringue, raspberries and a drizzle of raspberry sauce.

Repeat layers.
