CONGOLAIS (COCONUT MACAROONS)







100g of desiccated coconut – 2 egg whites – 1 vanilla clove – 80g of brown caster sugar.

Preheat your oven to 220°.
Bring water to the boil in a large saucepan for a Bain Marie.
Put a little saucepan into the larger one full of boiling water (which should come about halfway up the side of the little saucepan) on a gentle heat.
Put all the ingredients in the little saucepan and stir well for 2 minutes.
Line a baking tray with baking paper.
Shape the coconut preparation into small balls.
Space them apart.
Bake for 7-10 minutes.

Heating technique inspired by Christophe Felder.
