Ingredient
10 Eggs
1 3/4 Cups sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
4 Cups all-purpose flour
1/3 Cup semolina flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
Sugar Syrup
2 Cups sugar
1 Cup water
1 Cinnamon stick
1/2 teaspoon orange zest
Garnish
Shredded coconut
Apricot jam
Finely ground pistachios
Method
● Preheat oven to 180˚C (350˚F).
● Grease 27cm (9in) cake pan with butter, dust with some flour, and shake off excess.
● In bowl of electric mixer, beat eggs on medium speed for 5 minutes until light and fluffy. Add vanilla.
● Mix all-purpose flour, semolina flour, and baking powder in large bowl. Using a rubber spatula, gradually fold into egg mixture until well combined. Pour batter into prepared pan.
