Step by Step guide

Step 1

Beat 100 g of margarine with 1 cup of sugar, then add 4 egg yolks, the zest of 1 lemon, half a cup of milk, and 100 g of flour. Next, gently fold in 4 whipped egg whites and an additional 150 g of flour. Mix carefully until a smooth batter forms. Pour 3/4 of the batter into a greased and floured baking pan.
