enough for about 40 pieces

Beat the egg whites with the lemon juice and salt until stiff peaks form. Gradually add the sugar. Set aside 2 tablespoons of the beaten egg whites. Carefully fold in the ground nuts using a flat whisk or wooden spoon. Use a spatula to work the mixture through again to ensure all the nuts are thoroughly incorporated. Place the batter into a piping bag fitted with a No. 10 star nozzle and pipe macarons onto baking sheets lined with wafer paper. Place the beaten egg whites into a second bag fitted with a small nozzle and pipe a small dot onto the centre of each macaron. Lightly press a whole hazelnut onto the top. Bake in a preheated oven at 130°C (fan setting) for 10 to 15 minutes – the macarons should be dry on the outside but still slightly moist on the inside.
