ORANGE COTTONY CAKE II [OGURA CAKE]

My earlier posting on this cake Orange Cottony Cake I was a bigger cake.  This cake here only uses 4 eggs and I baked it in a 6 - 6 1/2 inch baking tin. The cake rose beautifully and without any cracks.  The cake can be dislodged easily after cooling and shrinks just a little.
I baked this cake on 29/1/14 as an item for  prayers 'pai pai' [happens to be my late youngest brother's birthday], so I didn't slice it but it is a nice cake, taste and texture wise.   It's a keeper.

Ingredients for Egg Yolk Mixture
[use 6 1/2" or 16 cm square tin]
50 gm superfine flour - sifted
1/4 tsp salt
3 egg yolks
1 whole egg
35 ml corn oil 
50 ml  orange juice [from 1-2 oranges]
zest of 1 orange
  1. Place the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl and make well in the centre. Add in eggs, corn oil and orange juice.  Using a paddle hook, beat ingredients until creamy and well combined.   Set aside. 
  2. Pour 1 and 1/2 cups water into baking tray, place baking rack on the tray and  preheat oven at 160 degrees C for 10 minutes.
Ingredients for Egg White Mixture
4 egg whites
1/2 tsp cream of tartar
45 gm castor sugar
  1. Using an electric mixer, whisk egg white until frothy, add in cream of tartar and whisk until  slightly foamy.  Add in sugar in 3 batches.  Whisk until soft to stiff peaks formed.
  2. Using a spatula, fold in 1/2 of the meringue into egg yolk mixture.  Lift and fold until well combined, then add to rest of meringue.  Fold again until well mix.
  3. Pour the batter into a 6 1/2" square tin [line base with baking paper at the bottom only].    Lightly shake the pan and the batter will spread out evenly. 
  4. Steam bake in oven at 160 degrees C for 40 minutes.   Reduce temperature to 140 degrees C and bake for a further 20 minutes.  [Note: for the water bath, use 1 and 1/2 cups water for the duration of baking.  This way the cake base will be dry after baking].
  5. Remove from oven and invert the cake to cool slightly [about 5 minutes] before removing the pan and baking paper [there maybe some vapour on the baking paper].
  6. Cool cake completely before slicing to serve or refrigerate for slicing and serving later.
