1. 1
   

   Pour the egg white in to a measuring jug and mix in the food colouring and flavoring. Add the caster sugar and beat together with a fork. Place the measuring jug in a bowl of warm / hot water and continue to stir for 5 minutes, this should help the sugar to melt, giving the mixture a smooth consistency.

   
   
2. 2
   

   Mix together the almond meal and the icing sugar.

   
   
3. 3
   

   Add this to the egg mixture and mix well. The consistency should be thick but still runny.

   
   
4. 4
   

   Cover your baking tray with baking paper.

   
   
5. 5
   

   Use an icing bag to make small dots of batter on the baking tray (remember to make an even number).

   
   
6. 6
   

   Repeat the previous steps for any other colour and flavor of macaroons you want to make.

   Bake the macaroons in an oven set at 140'C for 15 - 20 minutes. Keep an eye on them because they will burn quickly if you leave them in for too long.

   
   
7. 7
   

   When the macaroon have cooled down, take one half and spread it with whatever filling you like. I used strawberry jam for my pink ones and lemon curd for my yellow ones.

   
   
8. 8
   

   Place another macaroon half on top.

   
   
9. 9
   

   Serve with a delicious cup of tea or coffee. Enjoy!
