Recipe for Parisian / Ladurée inspired macaroons.
After visiting Ladurée and having a snoop through my Nana's recipe collection, I was inspired to have a go at making my own macaroons.
(Makes a small batch of around 10 macaroons, multiply the recipe to make multiple colours and flavors.)

Step 1Pour 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.
-
Step 2Mix together the almond meal and the icing sugar.
-
Step 3Add this to the egg mixture and mix well. The consistency should be thick but still runny.
-
Step 4Cover your baking tray with baking paper.
-
Step 5Use an icing bag to make small dots of batter on the baking tray (remember to make an even number).
-
Step 6Repeat 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.
-
Step 7When 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.
-
Step 8Place another macaroon half on top.
-
Step 9Serve with a delicious cup of tea or coffee. Enjoy!
