Ingredients
  • Eggs – 2
  • Powdered Sugar – 2/3 cup
  • Zest of ½ an orange
  • Flour – 1/2 cup
  • Vanilla essence – 1 tsp
  • Filling/ Topping:
  • Thick Yogurt – 4 tbsp (or fromage frais)
  • Light Cream – 200ml (20-30%)Zest of ½ orangeCastor sugar – 2 tbsp
  • Strawberries – 225gms

Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 190degrees C.
  2. Line a 12 X 8” Swiss roll tin with butter paper.
  3. Whisk the eggs + sugar + vanilla essence + rind until thick; approximately 10 minutes till mousse-like.
  4. Fold in the flour with a metal spoon very carefully; try not to knock out any air.
  5. Pour batter into tin and bake for 15-20minutes/till done.
  6. Turn the cake onto a kitchen towel, sprinkled with Castor sugar, remove the butter paper, roll up gently & leave to cool.
  7. Meanwhile, to make the filling, put the cream + rind + sugar in a bowl and beat well until thick.
  8. Whisk the yogurt until smooth & gently mix in. Divide the mixture into 2 bowls.
  9. Chop ¾ of the strawberries and fold into 1 bowl for the filling. Slice the remainder for the top. Reserve a few leaves too if you like, or use fresh mint leaves.
  10. Unroll the sponge and spread the strawberry filling, leaving 1/2 and inch at the edges. The filling will get pushed out as you roll the sponge. Roll the sponge gently, but firmly, and lay in a serving dish with the edge underneath. (to prevent it from opening/unrolling).
  11. Spread the second bowl of cream over the top, decorate with sliced strawberries and mint leaves, and dust with icing sugar.
  12. Chill well before serving.
  13. Note: This can be made with other seasonal soft fruit like blackberries, blueberries/rasberries etc. Also, for those who like toasted almonds, you can include them in the topping.
