Ingredients
- 5 Pandan leaves, finely chopped
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 3 Egg yolks
- 70 grams Sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon Salt
- 20 milliliters Corn oil
- 36 milliliters Thick coconut milk
- 1/4 teaspoon Pandan paste
- 54 grams Cake flour or All purpose flour
- 3 Egg whites
- 1/4 teaspoon Cream of tartar
Make it step by step
- Preheat the oven to 170C.
- Blend the pandan leaves with water to a fine pulp. Wrap the pulp in muslin cloth and squeeze to extract the juice. Discard the pulp and set aside the juice.
- Whisk together the egg yolks, 30g sugar, salt, corn oil, coconut milk, pandan paste and pandan juice until well incorporated.
- Sieve the cake flour into the pandan mixture and continue to whisk until smooth. Set aside.
- Whisk the egg white, remaining sugar and cream of tartar until stiff, such that a firm peak forms when the whisk is pulled from the mixture.
- Gently fold the egg white mixture into the cake batter until well incorporated.
- Pour the batter into a 23cm tube pan (I think due to printing error this should be 18cm for 3 eggs) and bake for 40 minutes until the surface is browned.
- Remove the cake from the oven and invert it on a cooling rack. Allow the cake to cool before removing it from the mould by running a palette knife along the circumference of the cake to loosen the sides.
