Ingredients
- 160 ml canned chickpea liquid

Instructions
Using an electric mixer, whisk the canned chickpea liquid for 15 minutes or until soft peaks form. Whisking constantly, gradually add sugar and whisk until the mixture is thick and firm.
Drop large spoonfuls (about two tablespoons of mixture) onto 2 baking-paper lined trays and bake in a 120ºC oven for 1½-1¾ hours, until firm to touch. Cool meringues in the oven, then serve.
