I managed however to whisk and get the right texture of the whipped cream (yay!) which is a biggie to me because most of the time, I just tend to over-whisk the cream. Full of energy, much? Lol.
Despite surrounded by failure and I was on the brink of throwing it away, I suddenly got an epiphany (gituh! tak kuasa mak!)
Or rather, in my case, when life gives you chewy, limpy-looking meringue...
you make an Eton Mess!

Great dollops of chilled whipped cream, strawberries, blueberries and ruby-like pomegranate seeds and my version of Eton Mess is good to go! On any occasion, I wouldn't dare offering something that is less than perfect for anyone's consumption so I happily dig in and indulge myself.
I am one happy girl. And yes, life is indeed a bliss when you just can look at things positively.
And I am NOT giving up on the pavlova. Not yet.

OMG, Moose I failed miserably on pavlova too! *sighs*
I don't know if I'll ever be good at it. It required the right technique, temperature or so, as my brother the soon to be chef said. He can make a perfect pavlova and I'm jealous because he's a guy (and he's a chef in training!). Aren't girls supposed to know like everything? LOL!
nawar:
i know for a fact that kalau nak buat macaroons, kena buat during hot days cos humidity will make the macaroon's shell becomes chewy. i'm not sure for meringue though. tapi my MIL buat first time terus jadi! but then she has almost 20 years of baking experience so i think it comes together with practise.
i think in my case, the error was i didn't whisk the egg white long enough after adding in the sugar cos masa bakar tu, i can see sugar syrup forms at the bottom of the meringue causing it to lose its crispiness & become chewy.
terela tu moose !!! aku haritu first time masak kek pakai microwave. bole? HAHAHA
