This sponge cake need not store in the fridge, it can be kept at room temperature.

Method:

1. In a mixing bowl, use a hand whisk, lightly whisk egg yolk and sugar.

2. Stir in oil, follow by water and vanilla. Stir to combine. Sift in flour, stir until well combine. Set aside.

3. In a stand mixer, whisk egg white and lemon juice/ cream of tartar until frothy, gradually add in sugar and continue to whisk until 'almost' stiff. Lift up the whisk, you'll see a nice curve at the tip.

4. Fold the egg white into egg yolk batter in 3 batches.

5. Pour the batter in 2 x 6" round cake tin. No need to line or grease the cake tin. Gently tap the cake tin on the table top to release any trapped air bubbles.

6. Bake in a preheated oven 140'C for 25 minutes (traditional mode, 2nd bottom rack), then increase the temperature to 160'C (baking mode/ with fan, 35 minutes or until cooked)

7. When it's ready, remove from oven and invert immediately, let it cool and un-mould with spatula or hands. If you like my recipe, click here, LIKE & FOLLOW my facebook page to receive more recipe updates.
