METHOD

 
50 gm butter

1/2 cup sugar

2 eggs

1 cup flour

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 cup orange juice

1 tsp lemon juice

1 tsp orange zest

1 cup of milk
  Mix the butter and sugar in a bowl with a spoon.

Then beat the mixture till it becomes fluffy.

Break the eggs, separate the yolks and the whites.

Mix the yolks into the mixture with a wooden spoon till it becomes light.

Add the flour, baking powder, orange juice, lemon juice, orange zest and the milk.

Mix it all together into a smooth batter.

Now beat the egg whites till they are stiff and fold them to the batter with a metal spoon.

Stand this bowl in a pan of water and bake in a pre-heated oven for 30-40 minutes at 160 degrees Celsius.

(A water bath is a larger pan containing water in which to place the smaller cake baking pan. This is done to keep the oven moisture high)
