Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 32x24cm (13x9.5 inch) rectangular jelly roll pan with parchment paper, ensuring it overlaps the edges for easy removal.
In a clean, dry bowl, whisk the egg whites using an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
Gradually add caster sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating well after each addition until the mixture is glossy and stiff peaks form. This should take about 7-8 minutes.
Gently fold in the cornflour, white vinegar, and vanilla extract using a spatula, being careful not to deflate the meringue.
Spread the meringue evenly onto the prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake the pavlova in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the top is lightly golden and feels firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes.
Lay a clean tea towel on your counter and sprinkle it lightly with powdered sugar. Carefully invert the pavlova onto the tea towel and peel off the parchment paper. Let it cool completely.
While the pavlova cools, whip the heavy cream with the icing sugar in a mixing bowl until soft peaks form. Set aside.
Once the pavlova has cooled, spread the whipped cream evenly over the surface, leaving a small margin around the edges.
Distribute the thinly sliced peaches and drizzle the passionfruit pulp evenly over the whipped cream.
Using the tea towel to help, gently roll the pavlova from one of the shorter ends into a tight roll. Ensure the seam is underneath to secure the shape.
Transfer the pavlova roll to a serving plate and dust with powdered sugar just before serving.
Slice and serve immediately for best results. Enjoy!
