Orange Chiffon Cake (using rice flour) 香橙米粉戚风蛋糕
 

 


Ingredients

5 egg yolks
20g sugar
40g vegetable oil
50g orange juice
some orange zest
60g self raising flour
30g rice flour (再来米粉/在来米粉/粘米粉) * ( see below)

5 egg whites
50g sugar
1/4 tsp cream of tartar

* the rice flour will retain the moisture and create a more moist cake


Method

1. Whisk egg yolks and sugar until the sugar dissolves.
2. Gradually add in vegetable oil, followed by orange juice, and stir until well-mixed.
3. Fold in sifted cake flour and rice flour until well-mixed. Set aside.
4. In another bowl, whisk egg whites and cream of tartar until foamy. Add in sugar gradually and continue whisking until stiff peak form.
5. Gently fold in the egg white into the egg yolk batter (in step 3) in 3 batches. Lastly, add in orange zest.
6. Pour the batter into an ungreased chiffon tin. Give the tin a few slight knocks on the tabletop to remove air bubbles. Bake in preheated oven at 170 deg C for 40 minutes.
7. Remove from oven and invert the tin immediately onto a cooling rack.
8. Unmould the cake only when it is completely cool.
