Preheat the oven to 110C/225F. Whisk the egg whites until stiff. Add 1 tbsp caster sugar, and continue whisking until thick and glossy. Fold in the remaining sugar, a little at a time, until all mixed. Line a baking tray with parchment. Pipe approx 7cm rounds of meringues onto the parchment. Cook for approx 2 hours, then turn the oven off, but leave the meringues in until they are cold. The filling is made by mixing the mascarpone with the orange zest and icing sugar. I use this delightful mixture to sandwich the meringues together with a few slices of peach, perhaps spritzed with a little orange-flower water.
