- 50 ml vegetable oil
- Juice of 3 lemons
- 100g sugar
- 30g cornstarch
- 250 ml 33% cream
- 100 ml water with lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the lemon zest, eggs, and 120g sugar. Mix until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.
- Gradually add the flour and baking powder to the egg mixture. Mix until well combined.
- Pour in the vegetable oil and continue to mix until the batter is smooth.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool.
- While the cake is cooling, prepare the lemon syrup. In a saucepan, combine the juice of 3 lemons, 100g sugar, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and let it cool.
- Once the cake has cooled, poke holes in it with a fork or skewer.
- Pour the lemon syrup over the cake, allowing it to soak in.
- In a separate bowl, whip the 33% cream until stiff peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the cake.
- Combine the water with lemon juice and powdered sugar to create a glaze. Drizzle the glaze over the whipped cream.
