Australian Creamy Mango Pavlova is a popular dessert in Australia, particularly during the summer months. The meringue base is light and fluffy, while the addition of fresh mango gives it a sweet and fruity flavour. The dish is often served at barbecues and outdoor gatherings, where it is enjoyed with family and friends. The dessert is easy to make and can be prepared in advance, making it an ideal choice for those who want to impress their guests without spending hours in the kitchen.

Instructions

1.	Preheat the oven to 120C fan-forced. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
2.	Beat the egg whites together with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add the sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating well after each addition until thick and glossy.
3.	Spoon the meringue onto the prepared tray and use the back of a spoon to make an indentation in the centre.
4.	Bake for 1 hour or until the meringue is crisp on the outside and soft in the middle.
5.	Meanwhile, peel 2 mangoes and cut the flesh into thin slices. Cut the remaining mango into small dice and place in a bowl with the Grand Marnier. Add the sliced mango to the bowl and toss gently to combine.
6.	Beat the cream until soft peaks form.
7.	Once the meringue is cooked, remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
8.	Spoon the whipped cream onto the meringue, followed by the mango mixture. Serve immediately.
