Matcha meringue

1 egg white or 80g chickpea juice
1 pinch of salt
2 tsp xylitol does not work - please test with sugar or erythritol
1/2 tsp matcha

Matcha pearls

2g xylitol
3g agar agar
2g matcha
2 tbsp lime juice
200g water

Kohlrabi

1 kohlrabi
salt
20g lime oil

Papaya

1 papaya (normal size)
20g xylitol
40g rice vinegar
Salt, some grated ginger

Preheat the oven to 60 degrees.

Whip the cold egg whites for the meringue with salt, add xylitol/sugar and keep whipping until the sugar is pretty much dissolved. Spread the 5mm thick mixture on a baking mat, and dry the mixture in the oven for 4-5 hours. Release the steam from time to time.

Proceed in the same way if you use chickpea water.

For the matcha pearls, take boiling water and sweeten with xylitol. Bind the water with agar agar, boil for 2 minutes, remove the pot from the heat and stir in matcha. Pour the concoction into a small squeeze bottle. Set it aside until ready to serve.

Now it's the kohlrabi 's turn: shave the kohlrabi into thin slices. Peel the slices or cut them out. Salt them properly and set them aside for 20 minutes. Rinse off the water and drain the slices in a colander, then marinate the kohlrabi in lime oil.

Cut the papaya in half, removing the seeds. Rinse the seeds and dry them on paper towels. Set them aside until ready to serve.

Stir the rice vinegar with xylitol, salt and some grated ginger. Dice the papaya and marinate it in the broth.

To serve, spread two slices of kohlrabi slightly overlapped on each plate, spread the papaya cubes on the plate, decorate with a few seeds, and squeeze the matcha pearls onto the plates in dots. Break the meringue - if it works for you, dust with a little match and decorate a piece on the plate, a few leaves of Thai basil for the eye and serve.

Since it did not work for me with the meringue, I topped coconut chips with a little matcha - also fits great.

Small addendum:

Xylith in the meringues actually doesn't work, at least not if you spread it on a mat. If you're making small mounds, then that may work if you double the time in the oven as opposed to sugar. Even then, they still need to re-dry for about 2 days. So brings nothing in my eyes - costs too much time and energy.
