Steps to make Pavlova with lemon curd and strawberries:
Preheat oven to 265 F (or 130 C).
Beat egg whites; once foamy and white, start to slowly add the sugar and continue beating until stiff peaks form.
Mix the corn starch and lemon juice (or vinegar) into a slurry, and whisk into the meringue along with lemon zest.
Spread the meringue mixture onto a parchment lined baking sheet, to a diameter of about 20-22cm. Shape so that there is a shallow center cavity.
Bake for an hour at 260 F, then let cool in the oven for at least an hour.
Mix the egg yolks, lemon juice, lemon zest, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Place the bowl over a pot with simmering water to create a double boiler.
Whisk the mixture while it heats and thickens over the double boiler, about 10-15 minutes, until it has the consistency to coat the back of a spoon.
Take off the heat, and whisk in the butter until it has melted. Place a plastic film over the top of the curd to prevent a skin from forming, and let the curd cool.
Make whipped cream by whipping heavy cream with sugar and vanilla extract to taste.
Assemble the pavlova by spreading a generous layer of whipped cream over the top, followed by a layer of lemon curd, strawberries, and other fruit. You can also add toasted almond flour or toasted almond slices for texture.
