I use a small tube pan so I halved the recipe. (this is the half recipe)
(A)
2 egg yolks
10g sugar
1/8 tsp salt
30g vegetable oil (I use canola oil)
35g milk
(B)
1 orange zest
1 - 1 1/2 tbsp squeezed orange juice (more orange juice makes it more fragrant and dense, not so chiffony)
(C)
50g plain flour
1/4 tsp baking powder
(D)
2 egg whites
50g sugar
1. Mix A till well combined, then add C.
2. Whisk egg whites in D till soft peaks form, then add sugar.
3. Continue whisking till stiff.
4. Take 1/4 of the meringue and mix with egg yolk mixture and combine well.
5. Mix the remaining merginue with the egg yolk mixture and mix well.
6. Add in B and mix well.
7. Pour into a tube pan (about 18cm) and bake at 170deg C for 45min. (it will rise quite a lot)
8. When cool, remove from mould.
Optional:
Some choppped walnuts on top to bake.

Hihi....
what is orange zest? or lemon zest??? saw this in a few receipes...but dun noe what it is..and where can i get it?
HI GeGe nice to see you here!!
Orange zest refers to the outer skin of the orange.....likewise for lemon.
It is often used to add strong flavor to foods, such as lemon meringue pie, sorbets and salads. To remove the zest from a fruit, a zester, vegetable peeler or paring knife is used to scrape the colored part of the peel off. The white membrane under the zest is unpleasantly bitter and generally avoided by limiting the peeling depth. (Wikipedia)
Hope I ans ur ques :)
Hello there,
your cake looks really good!
is that the picture of your pan?
the recipe you posted is the halved-version or the original version?
Oh, and in step 1 do you mean add A B and C? you don't mention C at all in your steps...
cream of tartar isnt in your ingredients list, how much to add?
Oh my god thanks for highlighting! i just realised the error in the book.. nowhere states cream of tartar as ingredient until it appears in the steps. So Ive removed it completely.
And yes thats my pan :)
And I've slightly revised the steps, cos I added in extra orange juice on my own. So I incorporated one more step myself.
tks once again!
