Method
- Preheat the oven to 190°C/fan170°C/gas 5 and line a baking sheet with baking paper.
- Put the egg white in a bowl with the caster sugar and beat with a fork until frothy.
- Sift in the plain flour and stir in the vanilla extract.
- Stir through 25g melted and cooled butter, then stir well until smooth.
- Drop teaspoons of the mixture onto the baking paper at least 10cm apart and smooth into very thin circles (about 8cm diameter) with the back of a spoon. Sprinkle each with a few flaked almonds.
- Bake for around 6 minutes until pale golden. Take out of the oven and cool for a second, then lift gently with a palette knife and lay over a rolling pin to form a curved shape. When firm, cool on a wire rack.
