This sounds crazy but it produces wonderful meringues. The original recipe is halved but I like to use my Kenwood Chef and therefore the quantity below is best for me. But otherwise, it's pretty amazing that you can get 8 meringues out of just one egg white!!
2 egg whites
1 1/2 c. caster sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. white vinegar
1 tsp. cornflour
1/4 cup boiling water
Place all ingredients in the order given (so that the egg whites aren't cooked by the boiling water!) into a medium-sized bowl and beat with electric whisk until mixture is thick and satiny, about 12 minutes. It'll look like whipped cream (and taste heavenly although I know a lot of people wouldn't dream of eating uncooked eggs).
Spoon 16 blobs of mixture onto a tray (I use those washable baking papers).
Bake in middle of oven at 180 degreesC (350 degreesF) for
10 minutes; reduce heat to 150 degreesC (300 degreesF) and bake a further 45
minutes.
Allow to cool in oven.
