i tried this!!! and I loved it!!
EDIT
*** double boiler: use a heatproof bowl and a saucepan. bottom of bowl must be large enough not to touch the simmering water in the saucepan.. but able to cover its width
like this:

water bath / bain marie - use a baking dish larger than the cake pan, pour hot water in until 2/3 o full at the sides. please be careful not to let water spill into the batter.

LEMON MERINGUE PIE
Ingredients
PASTRY
• 90g (3oz) butter
• 1/3 cup caster sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 egg
• ¾ cup self-raising flour
• ¾ cup plain flour
FILLING
• 3 egg yolks
• ½ cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons flour
• Grated rind and juice of 2 lemons
• 4 tablespoons of water
MERINGUE
• 3 egg whites
• Pinch of cream of tartar
• ¼ cup sugar
Procedure
Pastry

Cream butter with sugar and vanilla with electric mixer. Then add egg and beat well.
Will look something like this

Stir in sifted flours, turn out onto a floured board and knead lightly.

Chill for 1 hour. Rollout on a floured surface to fit greated 20-30cm (8-9in) pie plate. Pinch edges decoratively and prink base well with a fork. I found with rollling out the pastry it was best putting the pie plate on top and roughly cutting around the base of the dish, and then cutting strips for the sides and pressing together.

Bake in a preheated hot oven (200C/400F) for 15 minutes, then reduce oven to moderate (180C/400F) and bake for a further 5-10 minutes until crust is golden. Cool
Golden Crust below

Filling
Mix egg yolks, sugar, flour and lemon rind in the top of a *double saurcepan and gradually stir in lemon juice and water while cooking stiring constantly, over boiling water until mixture is smooth and thick. Cool, and pour ( more like spoon for me) into pie shell.
*If u havent a double saurcepan u could use a heat proof dish over boiling water

Meringue
Beat egg whites with cream of tartar until thick gradually adding sugar at about 2 tablespoons at a time, beating until mixture is thick and glosy, and sugar disolved.



Spread filling over pie shell, sealing completely with meringue. Bake in a preheated moderate oven (180c/350F) for 8-10 minutes or until meringue is golden


Serves about 8

Ingredients:
french baguette
coarsely minced shrimps
finely chopped green onions
mayonnaise
shredded cheese (i use cheddar, but you can use what you like)
there's no specific measurement cuz that girl eyeballs it and so do i. for a half-palm size slice, you'd need about 2 shrimps. so just multiply up depending on how many you're making. use enough mayonnaise to coat the mixture into a paste, and the amount of onion/cheese depends on how much you like those ingredients.
Steps:
1. mix shrimps+onion+mayonnaise+cheese together
2. cut baguette into slices of about 3/4 inch (2 cm)
3. evenly spread mixture onto baguette
4. bake in toaster oven at 275 F for 10-15 minutes until cheese is melted and shrimp turns red (indication that it's cooked)
it's easy and pretty much fail-proof. great for appetizers or afternoon snack.
