The recipe,
step by step

  1. 1

    Meringue

    Heat the egg whites combined with the sugar (A) to 50°C (122°F), then whisk gently in a mixer for 10 mn.
    Add the vinegar and then the cornflour that has been diluted with the sugar (B). Using a n°14 nozzle, pipe the meringue onto upside down 2.5 cm half-sphere moulds. Sprinkle with grated coconut that has been combined with sparkly silver powder. Bake in a fan-assisted oven at 110°C (230°F) for 1h30, releasing valve open. Cool slightly before removing from the moulds.

     

     

  2. 2

    Poached pineapple

    Bring the water, sugar, grated ginger and lime zest to the boil. Add the pineapple cubes and cook for 2 to 3 mn. Add the Grand Marnier®. Leave to rest then drain.

     

  3. 3

    Pineapple compote

    Heat the glaze with the lemon zest. Add the poached pineapple cubes. Transfer to 2.5 cm diameter half-sphere moulds (12 g per 2.5 cm half-sphere).

     

  4. 4

    Sublime with coconut

    Combine the ingredients and whip using a mixer.

     

  5. 5

    Assembly

    Dip the meringue base in white chocolate to make it more stable. Garnish the meringues with a layer of Sublime with coconut and insert two pineapple half-spheres. Using a F8 star shaped nozzle, pipe the Sublime cream with coconut onto the meringues (25 g per meringue).

     

  6. 6

    Decoration

    Position a piece of pineapple on the cream. Make fresh coconut triangles using a mandoline or vegetable peeler and add to the Sublime cream with coconut.
