SAMSUNG CAMERA PICTURES

This is my favorite sponge cake using high heat in a steamer. I received good response from viewers on this recipe and so I post it again.  We have this cake quite often as the recipe is easy to prepare and requires only a few ingredients. It s light, soft and delicious. Good for an afternoon tea.

Ingredients

  • 4 eggs
  • 150g castor sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla essence
  • 180g self raising flour, sifted
  • 50 ml 7-UP, fizzy drink

Method

  1. Whisk eggs until frothy, slowly add sugar and continue to whisk until very thick and creamy, add vanilla and whisk well.
  2. Fold in sifted flour in 3 batches, add 7-UP and mix well.
  3. Pour into a 18cm round bamboo steaming tray lined with wet white cloth or greased proof paper, steam with high heat for 30 minutes until cooked.
  4. Alternatively, you can just use a cake tin and the result is the same. Voila! Happy Days!
