ABRICOTS MERINGUES Spread a layer of vanilla-flavoured sweet rice on a dish, and set some poached half-apricots thereon. Cover with ordinary meringue ; shaping the latter like a dome or a Charlotte ; decorate with the same meringue; sprinkle with icing sugar, and place the dish in the oven in order to slightly cook the meringue. On withdrawing the dish from the oven, garnish the decorative portions alternately with apricot and red-currant jam
