Instructions
Preparation
Preheat the oven on 180 degrees Celsius or 356 degrees Fahrenheit.
Pour some olive oil on the baking tray and use a brush to cover the whole tray with a thin layer of oil. Add the baking sheet on top of this, and then pour over some oil again to brush the top of the sheet.
Making the Jelly
Soak the gelatin sheet in a small bowl with cold water.
If you're using soft fruits like berries, just heat the berries in a cooking pan with 5 tablespoons of water, the pinch of cinnamon and the sugar. If you're using peaches, apricots, pears, pineapple or apples; cut your fruits in smaller pieces and remove the core of the fruit. Then also cook these fruits with the 5 tbsp of water, pinch of cinnamon and the sugar.
When the mixing is cooking, add the gelatin sheet. Keep stirring to solve the sheet in the jelly. Then turn off the heat.
Blend the jelly until smooth, and then let it cool down in the refrigerator.
Making the Cake
Whisk the egg yolks with the 70 grams of sugar, 60 grams of flour and the vanille extract.
Whisk the egg whites in a fat free bowl until fluffy, white and without any big bubbles anymore.
Whisk 2 big spoons of the egg whites in the egg yolk mixture until everything is nicely mixed. Then fold in the other egg whites. Make sure you use a spatula for this.
Pour the mixture on the baking tray and smear the mixture evenly to cover the whole baking tray.
Bake for about 10-12 minutes.
Making the Roll
When the cake is ready; add powdered sugar on top of the cake. Then cover with a kitchen towel, and flip over the cake. In this way the baking sheet is on top and your kitchen towel on the kitchen counter. Make sure you work quickly since the cake still needs to be warm when you are rolling up the cake.
Take off the baking sheet and brush the cake with the liquor.
Add a layer of jelly on top of the liquor.
Carefully, you can roll up the cake.
Finishing
Mix 100 grams of powdered sugar with 3 tsp of water to make a quick glaze. Make sure you add the water per teaspoon since it's very easy to add too much water. If it is still too thick, add another teaspoon.
Add the glaze to the cake roll and grate some chocolate on top.
Serving
Serve with some extra jelly, fruits and ice cream!
