Low
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  • Beat the egg whites with ¼ cup of sugar to soft peak stage. Set aside.
  • Beat the egg yolks with ½ cup of sugar until fluffy. Gently fold in the egg whites. Add the flour and cornstarch and mix until homogeneous.
  • Pour the mixture into a baking tray lined with paper or a silicone mat and bake for 7 minutes or until the surface no longer leaves fingerprints when touched. Remove from the oven and cool.
  • Spread a very thin layer of jam on the surface of the cake and carefully roll it up. Freeze for 20 minutes. Cut into rolls and set aside.
  • Line a deep round mold with plastic wrap and cover the entire surface with the jam rolls. Set aside.
  • For the filling, in a pot over medium heat, heat the milk with the sugar and vanilla.
  • In a bowl, mix the egg yolks with the cornstarch and temper with a little of the hot milk. Pour this mixture into the pot and cook over low heat until thickened. Add the gelatin and mix. Cool to room temperature.
  • Whip the cream until soft peaks form and mix with the previous preparation, adding the strawberries.
  • Pour the filling into the bowl with the jam rolls and level it off. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until the filling sets. Unmold and decorate with more strawberries and whipped cream.
