- BRING the lowfat milk to a boil in a heavy bottomed pan. Keep stirring on low heat until reduced to 400 ml. Add in sugar and continue to stir for 10 more min.
- Keep aside to cold.
- To prepare the floating islands (the meringue): Combine the lemon juice, thickened lowfat milk and egg yolks. Mix well. Chill. In a small bowl beat the egg whites till they stand in soft peaks. Add in the sugar and beat till stiff, but not dry. In the meanwhile in a large saucepan bring six c. water to a boil. Lower the heat so which the water simmers. Drop the eggwhite mix into the water, two spoonfuls at a time. Simmer for five min. Make four meringues in this manner.
- To assemble, pour the chilled lowfat milk mix into four dessert bowls. Top with a meringue. Garnish with desiccated coconut or possibly pistachio slices and a cherry. Serve chilled.
- NOTES : This delicious light dessert really looks as if it were a floating island.
