Quatre-quarts
3 eggs, weigh them and use an equal weight of sugar, flour and butter
Grated rind of 1 lemon
Preheat oven to 180C/350F/Gas Mark 4.
Separate the yolks from the egg whites.
In a bowl, beat the yolks with the sugar until the mixture is thick
and light and of a pale colour.
Fold in a little flour and softened butter, repeat the process
until blended.
Add in the grated rind of the lemon.
Whisk the egg whites until stiff.
With a metal spoon, carefully fold egg whites into the flour mixture.
Pour this preparation into a well-greased rounded mould (up to 2/3
of the height).
Bake, then increase the heat a little.
The baking time should be between 40-45 minutes or until the ga2teau
shrinks slightly from the sides of the mould.
Note: To check if the ga2teau is done, test with the point of a
knife. It should come out clean when removed from the cake.
Serves 4.
