  1. How do I make a perfect meringue for Banoffee Pavlova?

    To make a perfect meringue for your Banoffee Pavlova, start by beating 6 egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add 350g of caster sugar while continuing to beat for about 10 minutes until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is glossy. Remember to bake at a low temperature of 100°C for 1½ hours and allow it to cool in the oven to prevent cracking.
