1. Strawberry Roll(Serves 8)

Ingredients

• 3 large eggs
• 100 gm + 25 gm white sugar
• 120 gm all-purpose flour
• 240 gm pulpy strawberry jam
• Decoration: Icing sugar, diced strawberries

Instructions

1. You will need a 9x13-inch sheet pan, line it with parchment paper, set it aside and preheat the oven to 180°C.
2. Take a mixing bowl and an electric whisk, manual one will do as well. Add the eggs, then the white sugar, as per taste, and mix until the eggs turn a pale yellow and triple in volume.
3. Add the flour into the bowl and take care not to beat down the volumised eggs. Mix until combined with the egg-sugar duo.
4. Using a spatula spread the batter on the sheet pan. Bake for 20 minutes until the cake rises and is springy to the touch. Insert a toothpick to check, minimal crumbs equals done.
5. Once baked, quickly grab a clean kitchen towel, cover the cake with it and from the shorter side, roll the cake with the towel.
6. Let the cake roll cool for another 10 minutes. This allows the cake to develop muscle memory.
7. Unroll the cake, remove the towel and spread the strawberry jam on it, sprinkle some chia seeds for a little crunch.
8. Roll it back up, sprinkle icing sugar and arrange diced strawberries on its surface. Your roll or roulade is ready, cut into mini rolls and serve.
