1st time I made Watermelon Chiffon Cake was not long ago, it's a trial & error because I'm curious. You heard about Orange Chiffon, Banana Chiffon, Mango Chiffon but not Watermelon! My daughter ate all the cakes within 2 days & she asked me to bake more. Since I've more watermelon fruits, I bake them again late night but this time round, I twist some.
Ingredient A:
115ml watermelon ~ mashed
2 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp cornstarch
Ingredient B:
5 egg yolks
85ml canola oil
60g caster sugar
180g cake flour / HK flour
1/8 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
Few drops of pink/red colour
Ingredient C:
6 egg whites
1/8 tsp cream of tartar
80g caster sugar
Directions:
- In a pot, add mashed watermelon & sugar on medium heat. Keep stirring the mixture till sugar dissolve then add cornstarch & continue stirring. Once the watermelon thicken, remove from the heat & let it cool competely.
- In a bowl, beat egg yolks & sugar together till creamy. Then add the watermelon mixture & sift in all the dry ingredients & add few drops of pink food colouring. Stir till smooth.
- Whisk egg white with cream of tartar then gradually add sugar & whisk till medium-stiff peak.
- Fold mixture (2) & (3) together & pour into a 23cm tube pan.
- Bake @ 160 deg C. for about 45 mins or till cake is cooked through.
- Overturn cake (still in the pan) onto a wire rack & have it to cool down completely.
- Remove cake from tube pan, slice & serve!
