Ingredients
  

Ingredients:

Sponge:

  • 5 eggs
  • 100 g flour
  • 100 g sugar
  • 50 g vegetable oil
  • 100 g milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Cream  (enough for filling, make more for decoration):

  • 50 g mascarpone
  • 250 g whipping cream
  • 30 g sugar
  • OR
  • 300 g whipping cream
  • 30 g sugar
  •  
  • Strawberries for decoration

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 170 degrees C
  • separate the egg yolks from the egg whites.
  • whip the egg whites, when it starts foaming up, we’re going to gradually add in the sugar and mix until we get to soft peak consistency
  • prepare the egg yolk mixture: add in the oil, milk and vanilla extract. Mix it until it’s well combined
  • Add in the flour into the yolk mixture and mix until you get a smooth batter
  • Gently fold the beaten egg whites and egg yolk mixture together. Try not to over mix and deflate the air that we’ve incorporated
  • Pour the batter into a 11” square pan, lined with baking paper
  • Bake in the preheated oven at 170 degrees celcius for 30 minutes
  • Prepare the whipped cream: start by mixing the mascarpone cheese with some sugar until it’s smooth
  • Add in your whipping cream. Mix it until it starts forming soft peaks then refrigerate
  • Once the sponge is ready, take it out of the oven, leave the sponge to rest upside down. remove the baking paper
  • While the sponge is still warm gently roll it so that it’s easier to roll with the cream later on and to avoid the surface from cracking
  • Cut the sides: for the sides that are going to touch each other, I like to cut one of the sides at a 45 degrees angle to that it overlaps nicely 
  • Once the sponge has cooled completely, spread the whipped cream onto the surface of the sponge
  • Place the sponge on top of a baking paper sheet and roll it as tightly as possible
  • Refrigerate for at least an hour so that the roll can set. Once ready, slice and decorate
  • Enjoy!
