Preheat the oven to 130°C, 250°F, Gas Mark 1-2. Line a baking sheet with baking parchment paper and mark out a 23 cm (9in) circle.
Place the egg whites in the bowl, fit the whisk and whisk on speed max for approx. 2-3 minutes, until stiff. Add a large spoonful of sugar and whisk on speed max for approx. 2 minutes, until stiff. Continue adding spoonfuls and whisking after each addition as above until stiff.
Using a metal spoon fold in the vinegar, vanilla essence and cornflour, until well blended. Spoon onto parchment paper creating a swirled and peaked effect.
