How it's done
Biscuit mixture
Beat the egg whites with the salt until stiff. Add the sugar little by little and continue beating until the egg whites turn glossy. Carefully fold the dessicated coconut into the egg whites using a rubber spatula.
Shaping and drying
Using two teaspoons, create walnut-sized mounds and spread them out on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Use your wet index finger to make small depressions in the middle of the biscuits. Dry the biscuits at room temperature for approx. 3 hrs.
To fill
Put the jam into a disposable piping bag, cut approx. 1 cm off the end, squeeze the jam into the depressions.
To bake
Approx. 10 mins. in the centre of an oven preheated to 180°C. Remove from the oven, allow to cool a little, then leave to cool completely on a rack.
