Macaroons are small delectable and melt in the mouth. Watch this video to learn how to make French Macaroons. FRENCH MACAROONS Ingredients 4 large egg whites (140 grams) â?? cup castor sugar (70 grams) 1½ cups icing sugar (230 grams) 1 cup almond powder (120 grams) Few drops gel blue food colour For filling 1 cup dark chocolate ½ cup fresh cream Method 1. Preheat oven to 150°C. 2. Sift the almond powder, icing sugar and salt twice, discarding any almond lumps that are too big to pass through the sieve. 3. Place egg whites and castor sugar in a bowl and mix with electric mixer till stiff so that when bowl is turned upside down egg should not fall off. Continue to whip for one to two minutes more.Add gel or powdered food colouring and continue to mix for a further twenty seconds. 4. Fold one third of the egg white mixture into the almond powder mixture, mix well. Mix together the remaining egg white mixture and mix well. It should take roughly thirtyfolds using a rubber spatula. The mixture should be smooth and very viscous, not runny. Do not over-mix because then your macaroons will be flat and have no foot. Under mix and they will not be smooth on top. 5. Pipe onto trays lined with baking paper, tap tray on the table firmly (this prevents cracking) and leave it for half and hour.Bake in the preheated oven for twenty minutes. Check if a macaroon comes off the tray fairly cleanly, if not bake for a little longer (make sure you are using non-stick baking paper or they will stick). 6. Take the tray out of the oven, let them cool down to room temperature and serve. Click to Subscribe: http://bit.ly/1h0pGXf http://www.facebook.com/ChefSanjeevKapoor https://twitter.com/sanjeevkapoor
