Method

Preheat oven to 200°C.
Using an egg ring, cut out circles from each bun half and place on a baking tray.
Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream to each and freeze.
Meanwhile, in a bowl, using electric beaters, whisk 2 egg whites with a pinch of salt until soft peaks form.
Gradually add the caster sugar, beating until the mixture is thick and glossy.
Remove the buns and ice-cream from freezer and dollop the meringue on top of the ice cream until it’s completely covered.
Bake for 5 to 10 minutes.
