Description The week comes from Julie Goodwin's "The Heart of the Home" and the recipe is a pavlova roulade.

For the uninitiated, a pavlova is a meringue-based dessert that is a staple amongst Australian and New Zealand national cuisine.

A good pavlova meringue has a crispy exterior but is soft and marshmallowy on the inside. It is then typically topped with cream and fruit, but it is open to additions. Additions that usually involve some form of chocolate. I like adding broken up Flake or Peppermint Crisp to it, preferably by folding it through the cream. It's such a delicious, refreshing dessert and always the first thing I make a bee line for.

So when I saw her take on it, I just couldn't resist.

Thanks! I seem to have a way with meringue for some reason, it usually turns out right for me. I think it's just lots of practise with it.
