Ingredients
75 ml Water, 50 gr Orange juice powder, 1 tsp Orange essence
150 gr Coconut cream+150 ml Vegetable oil-mix, 175 gr Sugar
1½ tsp Cream of tartar (2 tsp Lime juice), 40 gr Milk powder
170 gr Flour+15 gr Corn starch, 1 tsp grated Orange zest
450 gr Egg white, ¾ tsp Baking powder, ¾ tsp Salt
Directions
Preheat oven to 170° C; turn oven fan mode on. Place oven rack in the lowest position. Put a 24-26 cm chiffon cake form (spring-form tube pan) in the oven until the batter is ready. Dissolve the orange drink powder & essence in water; set aside.
Combine flour, corn starch, baking powder, milk powder & orange zest. Make a well in the center of the flour; pour in the vegetable oil mixture. Whisk until the batter smooth with no lumps. Pour in the orange mixture; stir with a spatula to combine it well.
Beat egg whites with an electric mixer until foamy. Beat in cream of tartar (lime juice) & salt until soft peaks form. Gradually add in sugar; beat until stiff peaks form.
Gradually add egg whites mixture into the flour batter. With a spatula, gently fold the egg white mixture in one direction, just until it blended (don’t fold it too long).
Take the cake pan out of the oven; splash little water into the pan sides. Gently pour the batter in & then smooth the top. Bake for 20-25 min (until the cake rose & starts to crack). Turn the oven fan mode off, turn upper heat on. Cover up the pan with aluminium foil. Bake again for 35-40 min.
Remove pan from the oven & put it upside down on a cooling/wire rack (elevate/suspend the pan tube over a flat cup bottom/bottle). Let the cake cool down to room temperature. Turn the pan over. Run a blunt side of a knife or an offset spatula, with one movement, between the edge of the cake & the pan to loosen it from the pan.
