[edit] Ingredients

  • 140g caster sugar
  • 4 egg whites
  • 300ml double cream
  • 150ml homemade lemon curd

[edit] Method

  • Preheat the oven to 180C/GM4.
  • Line a 33 x 23cm swiss roll tin with baking parchment.
  • Whisk the egg whites until stiff then gradually whisk in the caster sugar.
  • Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin, spreading it to the edges.
  • Sprinkle over 25g caster sugar (mix in 1 tsp ground cinnamon for a lovely flavour).
  • Bake for 15 minutes. Leave in the tin to cool then turn out carefully on a clean tea towel. Peel off the lining paper.
  • In a bowl, whip the cream until it forms soft peaks.
  • Fold in the lemon curd and spread the cream over the roulade.
  • Roll from one short edge so that it looks like a swiss roll.
  • Dust with icing sugar if you like and serve in slices.
