For 10 portions

Ingredients

7 eggs
200 g all-purpose flour
200 g granulated sugar
7 tbsp vegetable oil
7 tbsp hot water
1 tbsp baking powder
200–250 g fresh strawberries, sliced

Preparation procedure

Preparing the yolk mixture Separate the egg whites from the yolks. In a bowl, beat the yolks with the sugar until light and frothy. Gradually whisk in the oil and hot water.
Flour base Sift the flour with the baking powder into the mixture and stir with a whisk until a smooth batter forms.
Folding in the egg whites Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form. Gently fold them into the batter with a spatula so it stays airy.
Preparing the pan Line a baking sheet (approx. 30 × 20 cm) with baking paper and lightly grease it with butter or oil. Pour the batter onto it and smooth the surface.
Fruit Evenly arrange the strawberry slices over the surface of the batter. Gently press them so they hold firmly.
Baking Bake in a preheated oven at 170 °C (fan) or 180 °C (conventional) for 20–25 minutes, until a skewer inserted into the center comes out dry.
Finishing Let the sponge cool on the sheet, then dust with powdered sugar and cut into squares.
