Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6.
- Grease a 33cm x 23cm/13in x 10in Swiss roll tin and line with baking paper.
- Whisk the egg whites in a clean, large bowl with an electric mixer on high-speed until very stiff.
- Gradually add the sugar, 1 teaspoon at a time and, keeping the mixer on a high-speed, whisk well between each addition. Whisk until very, very stiff and glossy and all the sugar has been added.
- Spread the meringue mixture into the lined tin and sprinkle with the almonds. Put the tin in the oven and bake for about 8 minutes until golden.
- Lower the temperature to 160C/140C Fan/Gas 3 and bake for a further 15 minutes, until crisp and firm to the touch.
- Remove the meringue from the oven and turn almond-side down onto a sheet of baking paper.
- Remove the paper from the base of the cooked meringue and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
- Lightly whip the cream and mix with the yoghurt. Spread evenly over the meringue.
- Cut the strawberries into quarters and sprinkle over the cream mixture.
- Roll up the meringue firmly, using the paper to help you, from the long end of the roulade. It is essential you keep the roll very tight. Wrap in baking paper and chill before serving.
- When you are ready to serve, dust with icing sugar and cut into slices.

Steps:
- 1 To make the filling, rinse the strawberries. Select 4 or 5 of the best berries to use for decoration and refrigerate them. Hull and slice the remaining berries. Combine the sliced berries with the sugar, kirsch, and lemon juice in a bowl and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- 2 Drain the berries, reserving the juice. In a medium bowl, whip the cream with the vanilla. Fold in the berries.
- 3 To assemble, remove the paper from the bottom of the gênoise and place the layer right side up on a clean piece of paper. Moisten the layer with the reserved strawberry juices. Spread with the filling and roll it up, wrapping it tightly in the paper. Place the roll in the freezer on a baking sheet while you prepare the meringue.
- 4 Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- 5 Whisk the egg whites and sugar in the bowl of an eclectic mixer, place over a pan of simmering water, and whisk until the egg whites are hot and the sugar is dissolved. Attach to the mixer and beat with the whip attachment on medium speed until cooled.
- 6 Place the cake roll on a baking sheet and cover with meringue, reserving a little meringue for decoration. Pipe several rosettes of meringue along the top. Dust the meringue with confectioners' sugar.
- 7 Place the cake on the center rack in the oven to color the meringue, about 1 to 2 minutes; turn the pan several times so the meringue colors evenly. Cool, then chill the roll.
- 8 Trim the ends of the cake on a diagonal. Slide the roulade onto a platter and decorate with the reserved strawberries.

STRAWBERRY LEMON MERINGUE ROULADE
This is a meringue that rolls like a sponge cake. You can use any type of fruit. My British husband introduced me to this wonderful dessert. His friend, Kathy, served it for Christmas because she knew I was a celiac. This is my spin on a great British classic: the roulade. A lighter alternative to pie; you don't have to...

Steps:
- 1. MERINGUE: Whisk together 6 large egg whites to soft peaks then gradually add caster sugar by teaspoons until all is combined and stiff peaks form. Finger test the meringue to ensure it is free of sugar granules. If the texture is grainy, you must continue whisking until the mixture feels silky between your fingers.
- 2. BAKING THE MERINGUE: Line a cookie sheet or jelly roll pan with wax or grease-proof paper. Let the paper extend 2-3 inches beyond the pan lip (you will use this to flip the meringue later). Lightly grease the wax paper with vegetable oil using a paper towel, cover all areas with a light veil of oil. Spoon the mixture onto the grease proof paper, smoothing with a spoon and working the meringue level and to all four corners of the pan. Your meringue will not be smooth but it should be evenly distributed with uniform thickness and in the shape of your pan. Bake at 300 deg F (150 deg C) for 25 minutes. Remove promptly from oven. Do not overbake. Flip the meringue onto another sheet of wax paper that has been lightly dusted with caster sugar to prevent sticking. Allow 30 minutes for the meringue to completely cool before attempting to fill or roll it into the roulade shape.
- 3. FILLING: You may use prepared lemon curd, lemon pudding for pie filling, or you may make your own curd. If you use prepared lemon pie filling, it will take 1/2 what is required for a 9" pie or 1/2 package prepared. Slice fresh strawberries extremely thin for layer 2, set aside. Whip heavy cream in your mixer at high speed while adding 1/4 cup of sugar by teaspoons until desired consistency is achieved. Whipped cream should be thick and dense for this recipe. Hint: 36% cream or higher works best. In the U.K., they use "double cream" which is about 42% cream compared to our U.S. 36% old fashioned heavy whipping cream.
- 4. ASSEMBLY: Remove the top wax paper layer from the cooled meringue. Drop lemon curd by spoonfuls (about 8 tablespoons) and then gently spoon this evenly across the meringue surface. Add sliced strawberries. Drop whipped cream by spoonfuls and smooth in the same manner as the lemon curd.
- 5. ROLLING: With the bottom sheet of wax paper, move the meringue toward you and fold over the first two inches to start the rolling process. Always roll with the paper, do not remove it. You are removing the paper as you roll the dessert. Gently roll the dessert end over end until it resembles a jelly roll with one turn left. Grab your serving platter and lift the roulade onto the plate. When the roulade is on an even plate surface, complete your final turn and discard the wax paper.
- 6. This can be made up to one day prior to serving. This photo was taken after it had chilled just one hour. I suggest 4 hours to chill and set before serving.
STRAWBERRY & PASSION FRUIT MERINGUE ROULADE
I haven't tried this recipe yet - it's from the BBC Good Food website. This looks like a really beautiful dessert....the photo is mouth wateringly tempting! You can change the strawberries for other fruit like kiwi etc for a change. For a thicker meringue, use 6 eggs & 300g sugar.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Line a Swiss roll tin, (about 23cm x 30cm) with baking paper. Whisk the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff. Slowly add the sugar, still whisking, until stiff and glossy.
- Spoon the mixture evenly onto the baking tray and bake for 15 minutes, until crisp on the outside. Remove and cool completely.
- Lay a piece of fresh greaseproof paper out and flip the meringue over onto it, carefully pull away the used paper and discard. Spread the lemon curd over it and then the passion fruit seeds.
- Whip the cream with the passion fruit juice and spread on top of the lemon curd. Sprinkle over the strawberries.
- Roll the meringue up lengthways using the paper to help turn it over. Put on a serving tray and dust with icing sugar.

Tips:
- To ensure the meringue is stiff and glossy, make sure your mixing bowl and whisk are completely clean and free of any grease. Any residue can prevent the meringue from reaching its full potential.
- When separating the egg yolks from the egg whites, take care not to let any yolk get into the whites. Even a small amount of yolk can prevent the whites from whipping up properly.
- When folding the meringue into the filling mixture, do so gently and carefully. Over-mixing can deflate the meringue and make the filling runny.
- For a more intense strawberry flavor, use fresh strawberries in season. You can also add a tablespoon of strawberry extract or liqueur to the filling.
- If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off to spread the filling onto the cake.
- To prevent the roulade from cracking, roll it up tightly and refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Conclusion:
Strawberry lemon meringue roulade is a delicious and impressive dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its light and airy sponge cake, creamy strawberry filling, and fluffy meringue frosting, this roulade is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this recipe a try.
