4 large eggs, separated
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup jam
1 cup whipped cream

Cooking Instructions

1

In one bowl, using an electric mixer, mix together the egg yolks and sugar until light and fluffy. Then add the flour, baking powder, salt and fold in together.
2

In a separate bowl, beat the egg white to soft peaks, then add to the flour mixture and fold together into a smooth batter.
3

Pour into a baking tray, spread out to fill all sides. Bake at 180 degrees centigrade for 10 minutes. Set aside to cool completely.
4

Lay a clean, dry cloth on a flat surface. Sprinkle over with icing sugar, then lay the sponge up side down on the sugar. Spread the jam all over the sponge followed by a thick layer of whipped cream.
5

Using the cloth, gradually roll over the sponge, taking care not to break it. End up wrapping the rolled sponge with the cloth and refrigerate to firm up a little.
6

Unwrap and serve with ice cream or custard.
