Instructions
- Separate the yolks and white of four eggs, when they are cold. Now start to prepare and measure the rest of the ingredients. This way the eggs will get to room temperature and whisk up wisely and quickly.
- To the yolks add 1/2 a cup of caster sugar. Make sure to use a bigger bowl, so it is easier to incorporate the ingredients. You can use a hand whisk or an electric handheld whisk to whip up the yolks with sugar. Whisk till soft and pale. Add the oil, water and vanilla to the beaten yolks and whisk again. And set this aside.
- Sift together cake flour, baking powder, and salt. Make sure to pass these dry ingredients through a sieve. Add the dry ingredients to the beaten yolks and use a whisk to combine both well.
- In another bigger bowl add the egg whites and a pinch of salt. Use an electric whisk to whip up the whites. Gradually add 1/4th cup of sugar and keep the whisk running as you add the sugar. Beat till you achieve soft peaks.
- Gradually add the beaten whites to the prepared yolk batter. Use a rubber spatula to fold the airy whites into the rest of the batter. Your cake batter is ready and Don’t over-mix.
- Divide the batter into two parts, to one of the parts add the sifted cocoa powder and fold it slowly to incorporate.
- Add both the batters to a parchment-lined cake pan and use a skewer to make swirls. Bake in a preheated oven for 30 minutes at 180*C. Once done, let the cake cool down on a wire rack. Carefully remove the cake from the tin and enjoy.
