Swiss Roll
Report
A lovely, nostalgia-infused treat that you can customise with your favourite filling.
Share:
Ingredients
- 5 eggs
- 1 cup sugar (caster or white)
- 125 grams plain flour (all purpose flour) (1 cup, sifted first)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon warm water
Filling
- 2 tablespoons caster sugar
- 200 grams strawberry jam or thickened cream (or both)
- 1 tablespoon icing sugar
Instructions
- Grease two swiss roll tins (23 x 33 x 2-3cm) and line with baking paper.
- Pre-heat oven to moderate (180 degrees celsius).
- Beat egg whites until stiff.
- Add sugar gradually, continuing to beat between each addition.
- Whisk egg yolks together with the warm water.
- Add egg yolks to mixture and beat again until well combined.
- Sift flour together with baking powder and salt. Fold into mixture gradually until combined.
- Add half of the mixture to each tin and smooth out to edges.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes.
- Allow cakes to cool in tin for 10 minutes.
Rolling and filling
- Sprinkle two sheets of baking paper (slightly larger than the swiss roll tins) with caster sugar.
- Carefully flip the warm sponge onto the baking paper sheets (and peel away the baking paper the sponges were cooked in).
- Use the baking paper to roll the sponges up firmly and leave to cool completely.
- When the sponges are cool, unroll gently. Spread the jam or cream (or both) filling evenly over the surface of the sponge, leaving a gap of about 5 cm at one end. Slowly roll the sponges up again.
- Serve with the open edges on the bottom to keep the sponges tightly rolled. Dust with icing sugar.
