Mango and Passion Fruit Meringues with Mascarpone

One of my great standbys for cheat recipes is Marks & Spencer's meringue nests of what I call mini pavlovas. There’s nothing in them except sugar and egg white – pure unadultered meringue. There’s no limit to how they can be used for quick, no-work-atall, desserts. This one is also a real winner – thick, luscious mascarpone and tart passion fruit and mango.

Method

In a bowl, mix the mascarpone with the vanilla extract. Place the meringues on to serving plates. Divide the mascarpone mixture between the meringues piling it up in the centre.

Next, drain the mango slices and cut them into thinner strips. Arrange the strips of mango on top of the eight meringues. Cut the passion fruit in half, scoop out the flesh and drizzle some over each meringue, serve immediately.

Pavlova

This is a delicious pudding from Australia, which is very difficult to make if you don't have the right recipe but dead easy if you do! Served with sharp fruits to counteract the sweetness of the meringue, it is truly one of the greats.
