The best part of any festive meal? A dazzling dessert to finish it off. And in true Wonky style, we're going for an Eton Mess. It's like a Pavlova...but wonky! And a delicious solution for any meringues that don't quite go to plan.
The wonderfully wonky meringues in our Wonky Christmas Box might not have made the supermarket shelves, but they're destined for dessert greatness! A little lopsided but full of charm, they're perfect for this festive Eton mess recipe. We've paired them with Farmers Wife Lemon Curd straight from Otago, and topped it all off with rescued seasonal berries.
Got some chocolate in your Christmas stocking? Grate a little over the top for an extra special finishing touch!

Tip: This dessert is best assembled just before serving to keep the meringues crisp!
Cool the kumara properly and the cubes hold their shape. The orange juice goes into the dressing, making a light but creamy dressing.
Cauliflower and chickpeas roast on separate trays so both crisp properly, then fold through turmeric couscous with almonds and herbs.
Rolled lamb shoulder, seared then roasted, sliced over a mint and basil gremolata with garlic, lemon and sumac. Under an hour.
One potato, two eggs, a hot pan — this crispy-edged omelette turns your fridge odds and ends into a proper meal in under 15 minutes.
