Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/gas 4.

2. In a large bowl, whisk the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually whisk in the caster sugar until stiff peaks form.

3. In a small bowl, mix together the cornflour, wine vinegar and vanilla extract.

4. Whisk the cornflour mixture into the beaten egg whites.

5. Spoon the meringue mixture into a 33 x 23cm Swiss roll tin, lined with baking parchment, spreading evenly.
