Ingredients

80 g	flour
1 tsp	baking powder
1 medium	egg, beaten
180 g	caster sugar
1 tbsp	olive oil
1 tsp	lemon extract
6 medium	eggs, whites only
50 g	confectioners’ sugar
80 ml	lemon curd
300 ml	whipping cream
2 tsp	grated lemon rind

Instructions

Preheat oven to 190°C.

Mix the flour, baking powder and salt.

Beat the egg until thick and slowly beat in 50g of the caster sugar until creamy. Add the oil and lemon extract.

In another bowl, beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks. Add remaining caster sugar and beat until the mixture holds stiff peaks. Add the egg whites and then the flour.

Spoon into a greased 30 x 20 cm roll tin and bake for 10 minutes.

Cover a clean tea towel with a sheet of greaseproof paper and dust with the icing sugar. Invert the cake on to the towel.

Trim the edges and run a knife about 2.5 cm from the short edge, cutting half-way through the cake. Roll up the cake from the cut edge. Leave to cool.

Unroll the cake and spread with lemon curd.

Whisk the cream until stiff, and stir in the lemon rind. Spread over the lemon curd, then roll up the cake again.

Chill for 1 hour before serving.
