Butter - 1 tablespoon
Milk - 1 tablespoon
Baking Powder - ½ teaspoon

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Separate 2 eggs into whites and yolks. Whisk the yolks with 40 g of sugar until the mixture lightens, add flour in portions (to the first portion add vanillin, salt, and baking powder) and continue whisking until smooth. Add 1 tablespoon of melted butter and milk, and mix well.

Step 2

Using clean beaters, whisk the egg whites with 35 g of sugar until soft peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture and slowly mix the batter.

Step 3

Line the baking pan with parchment paper, grease well with vegetable oil, and pour in the batter. Carefully spread it evenly across the pan to achieve a uniform thickness.

Step 4

Bake in a preheated oven at 356°F for 20–25 minutes until cooked through. Allow the baked sponge to cool for 10 minutes and remove the paper. Then, roll it up in a clean kitchen towel and let it cool completely.

Step 5

In a saucepan, combine all the ingredients for the curd: 2 eggs, 150 g of sugar, lemon juice and zest, 40 g of butter, cornstarch, and heat until boiling, whisking constantly. Cook for a couple of minutes and remove from heat. Let it cool.

Step 6

For the cream, mix the mascarpone with 150 g of cooled curd (the rest can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator) until smooth, and add the berries. You can also add powdered sugar if the cream seems too sour.

Step 7

Carefully unroll the towel and spread the cream over the sponge, distributing it evenly. Roll it up and let it rest in the refrigerator for a bit. Before serving, garnish with berries and powdered sugar.
