Makes ~60-80, depending on the size you make them.

- Ingredients
   + 7-8 egg whites
       * Note: I don't think the size of the eggs matters as much
         here as for the chocolate and hazelnut macaroons, but I
         haven't experimented much yet.
   + 500g sugar
   + 500g grated coconut
   + 30mL lemon juice
   + Lemon zest from one lemon
- Instructions
   + Beat egg whites until stiff.
   + Stir in sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest.
   + Stir in coconut flakes.

   + Form small heaps on a tray using two teaspoons.
     The dough is very brittle, so this part is a bit annoying.

   + Bake on middle rung at 180 C for ~10-15 minutes.
   + Notes
       * Some people like to put the macaroons on wafer papers, but
         I'm not a big fan of those.
