Ingredients:
80g icing sugar
50g ground almonds
5g green tea powder
16g sugar
40g egg white

Method:

Sift icing sugar, green tea powder and ground almonds in a bowl- twice, set aside.

Beat egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer at medium speed, add sugar gradually to the egg white until glossy, fluffy, and hold soft peaks. Add ground almond mixture into the egg whites, and fold briefly, until batter falls like lava, about 30 strokes.

Spoon a small amount of batter into a plastic bag with a small corner cut off and pipe onto prepared baking sheet in rounds, leaving space between the disks. Let the piped cookies stand out at room temperature until they form a hard skin on top, about 1/2 - 1hour.

Preheat oven to 160c, bake for about 15-18mins. When they are done, take the sheets out of the oven and let them cool on a rack. Once cooled to room temperature, your macarons are ready to be assembled.

* 5mins into baking, the feet of macaron should appear.

* preheat your oven between 140-160C , every oven behaves differently. My oven 160c is generally good for me.

* You will have to test your own oven and I prefer to stay close to it to watch over your macarons as they cook, especially for light-colored macarons (you don’t want them to brown)
