We’re having a party this weekend and I’m praying for good weather but the forecast isn’t looking great! So I need to plan some food which can potentially be barbequed or which can be thrown under the grill/in the oven if needs be. I need to do some surfing!
In the mean time, I know I am definitely making a GF sponge cake with Greek yogurt and fresh soft fruits, I’m adapting a recipe I found in the Sainsbury’s magazine. I have never made a GF sponge cake before, so this will be a first for me!! I have a recipe which sounds really nice but feel free to send me your favourite GF sponge recipe.
Potato Starch Sponge Cake - from Celiac.com
Ingredients
8 eggs
1 1/2 cups sifted sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons grated lemon rind
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 full cup potato starch
dash of salt
Separate the eggs. Using an electric mixer beat the egg whites until stiff and set aside. Beat the egg yolks for 2 min. at high speed. Add the lemon juice, sugar and lemon rind and beat another 2 min. at medium speed. Gradually add the sifted potato starch and continue mixing at medium speed an additional 2 minutes.
Fold the beaten egg whites gently but thoroughly with the egg yolk mixture. Place in a non-greased 2-piece 10″ tube pan and bake in preheated 350 degree F for 55-65 minutes or until cake springs back when firmly touched with fingers. Invert pan and cool thoroughly before removing from pan (I use a wine bottle and to prop up the cake to keep from pressing the top down).
If you think your recipe is better, then please tell me! The party is on Saturday, so I’ll let you know how it goes and what dishes I decide to make.
