I make meringues often - but I use an electric whisk!
1 egg white to 2oz sugar.
Very clean bowl - any yolk gets in it will be a puddle.
Whisk the whites until they form soft peaks and then add a spoon at a time of the sugar whisking well ensuring the sugar is well incorporated before adding more.
Spoon on grease proof/baking parchment with a metal spoon.
