- Beat egg white & cream of tartar until foamy, then gradually add in sugar, beat till stiff peaks.

- Take 1/3 portion of egg white mixture and use hand whisk to mix with egg yolk mixture till light. Fold the balance of egg white mixture into egg yolk mixture, combine well.

- Pour batter into (see note ##) 7 or 8 inch pan, bake for 60 mins or until cook.



 

 

Note :

 

** Sonia baked this sponge cake at pre-heated oven at 140c for 25mins (at lower rack), then increase to 170C (at lower rack) and continue to bake for 30mins.

## Sonia suggested - don’t line with paper and don't use a non-stick pan. However, my experience, I lined the paper in the pan, the cake rise well too.
