Preheat the oven to 160°C (140°C fan) mark 3. Line a 28cm x 38cm (11in x 15in) shallow baking tin with parchment paper.
Step 2
Put egg whites into a large bowl and whisk until stiff but not dry. Gradually add caster sugar, whisking constantly, until mixture becomes thick and glossy. Briefly whisk in the cornflour and vinegar.
Step 3
Spoon meringue into the prepared tin and spread out evenly. Bake for 25min or until it has a light golden crust. Leave to cool in tin for 5min. Meanwhile, dust a rectangle of parchment paper larger than the tin with icing sugar. Flip meringue on to the paper. Remove tin (leaving lining paper on) and leave to cool.
Step 4
In a medium bowl, whip the cream and maple syrup until the cream just holds its shape. Carefully peel lining paper off meringue and spread over the cream mixture. Sprinkle over pecans. With the help of the paper underneath, roll up the meringue from a short edge. Transfer to a serving plate, dust with icing sugar and serve.
