MANGO AND CREAM SWISS ROLL CAKE

INGREDIENTS

  • 3 eggs, room temp

  • ½ cup granulated sugar 

  • 1tsp vanilla paste

  • ½ cup all-purpose flour

  • 1tbsp cornstarch 

Filling: 

  • 150 gms mango cut into small pieces

  • 1 ¼ cup whipping cream 

  • 2 tbsp icing sugar 

  • Mango jam ( optional) 

  • Mint leaves for garnish 

INSTRUCTIONS:

  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper and grease it with some oil on both sides (12x16 inch)

  • In a large bowl add eggs, sugar, vanilla, and beat with an electric mixer until pale and doubles in size. Beat for at least 10 mins on high speed

  • Sift and add the flour and cornstarch and mix until just combined. Do not over mix

  • Pour this mixture into the greased tray and spread it out evenly with a spatula.

  • Tap the tray a few times to get rid of air bubbles 

  • Bake in a preheated oven at 180c for 10-12 mins. Do not over bake or under bake the cake. It’s a very thin cake so be careful with the temperature( I checked at 9 mins to gauge the timing )

  • Do the toothpick test to check and once the toothpick comes out clean, your cake is ready

  • Remove and quickly sprinkle powdered sugar on it, this prevents sticking.

  • Place another parchment paper over the cake. 

  • make sure the bottom parchment paper is easily separated from the cake. You can turn the cake and dust other side with powdered sugar too. 

  • Now roll the cake while it’s still hot ( with parchment papers both under and over the cake).

  • Let the rolled cake cool down completely in parchment paper

  • Meanwhile, cut your mangoes

  • Chill the whipping cream and bowl for use later

  • Put the icing sugar in the chilled bowl and add cream slowly. Whip until stiff peak forms 

  • Unroll the cake. Remove the top parchment paper and add mango jam on the cake 

  • Now spread the whipping cream on it

  • Add chopped mango pieces over the whipped cream

  • Roll cake and cover with parchment paper 

  • Refrigerate for 2hours at least before serving

  • Cut off edges and decorate the top of the Swiss roll with cream and mango pieces

  • Garnish with few mint leaves

  • And there you go, your easy mango and cream Swiss roll cake is ready
