Molotof Portuguese Pudding

Yum

This is what I made with the leftover egg whites after making the biscuit pudding. I halved the  original recipe. This pudding is very very light (feels like devouring a piece of cloud)

Ingredients:
egg whites   -   10  
sugar            -   150 g. 

For the Caramel: 
Sugar            -    150 g.
Water            -    50 ml
lemon juice   -    2 tbsp.

Method:
              
Preheat oven at 180 C with a water bath(take water in a baking dish( up to nearly half mark) which is bigger than the mold being used)

To make the caramel:

          To make the  Caramel combine together  water, lemon juice and the sugar in a saucepan and cook over medium heat until brown(when it has reached a caramel like consistency)

To make the Meringue : 

1. Beat the egg-whites using a whisk or a beater and when the egg whites start to get lightly stiff add the sugar slowly and gradually while beating.
2. Add some of the caramel to the egg whites slowly until the stiff peaks are formed.
3. Grease the mold with butter and pour the remaining caramel in the mold (bottom). Empty the prepared meringue into the mold using a spatula.
4. Place the mold with the meringue in the heated water bath and bake for 10 minutes.
5. Turn off the oven. Let the pudding remain in the oven for another 30 minutes.(Do not open the oven door) 
6. After the 30 minutes remove the pudding from the oven and remove it gently from its mold and refrigerate the pudding before serving.
