- 1 teaspoon cornflour
- 1/2 cup (40g) shredded coconut

Method
Coconut and raspberry roulade
- 1Preheat oven to 160°C (140°C fan-forced). Grease a 25cm x 30cm swiss roll pan; line base with baking paper, extending paper 3cm over long sides.
- 2Beat egg whites in a small bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Add sugar a little at a time, beating until dissolved between additions and firm peaks form. Fold in vanilla, vinegar and cornflour.
- 3Spread meringue into prepared pan; sprinkle with coconut. Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned and firm.
- 4Allow meringue to cool for 5 minutes, then carefully turn out onto a sheet of baking paper; remove the lining paper.
- 5To make coconut mascarpone, combine milk, coconut and sugar in a small saucepan; simmer for 20 minutes or until liquid has reduced to 1/2 cup (125ml). Remove from heat. Drain mixture, reserving liquid only. Refrigerate until cold. Fold gently through mascarpone.
- 6Spread coconut mascarpone evenly over meringue, leaving a 5cm border along the long edge furthest from you; sprinkle with raspberries. Using baking paper, roll roulade away from you into a log shape. Transfer to serving platter and refrigerate until ready to serve. Serve dusted with icing sugar.
Notes
Not suitable to freeze or microwave. You could use double cream instead of mascarpone.
