Ingredients:
6 eggs
100g caster sugar
120g flour
20g cornflour
Pinch salt
Food colouring. Red, yellow/orange, green.
Cream 250mls
Strawberries 🍓 🍓
Method:
Line a swiss roll tin with parchment paper
Preheat oven to 150 degrees C
Separate the egg whites and yolks in 2 large bowls.
Whisk the egg yolks with 50g of caster sugar for 3-4 minutes, or until pale and fluffy.
Add the flour, cornflour & salt, fold together until combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg whites for 1 minute.
Continue whisking, gradually adding the remaining 50g of sugar one spoon at a time.
Whisk the egg whites until they are at stiff peaks. You should be able to turn the bowl completely upside down and the egg whites won't move!
Fold the 2 mixtures together carefully. Make sure not to over-mix. It's okay if the batter is slightly streaky.
In 3 small bowls, places 2 tablespoons worth of the batter. With a toothpick add the food colouring to each bowl, and gently mix them. You should have one bowl of green batter, one of red and one of yellow/orange.
Place each of these batters into plastic piping bags.
Begin piping the strawberry design onto the baking sheet.
Once the design is completed, gently lay out the rest of the swiss roll batter on top. Be careful not to move the design underneath.
Bake for 8-10 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Once baked work quickly to roll the cake with new parchment paper or a tea towel.
Allow the roll to cool completely before finishing.
Whip cream & prepare the strawberries.
Once fully cooled un-roll the roll, fill with cream & fresh strawberries. Roll it back up and rest in the fridge for 1 hour before slicing.
Keep covered in the fridge for 3 days (if it lasts that long!)
