Ingredients B ( meringue ) :
5 egg whites
1tsp lemon juice

3. Whisk egg whites with lemon juice , beat till foamy . Gradually add in sugar, beat till stiff peaks.

4. Take 1/3 portion of egg white mixture and use hand whisk to mix with egg yolk mixture till light. Fold the balance of egg white mixture into egg yolk mixture, combine well.

5. Pour batter into the pan , lightly tap the pan to remove air bubble. Bake at preheated oven at 170c for 20 ~ 25mins or until cooked .

6. Remove cake from pan and cool down on wire rack till cool completely.

7. Carefully turn the baked sheet cake onto a piece of baking/parchment paper. Slowly peel off the attached baking/parchment paper from the cake. Place a new piece of baking/parchment paper over the sponge. Make a few slits across the breadth of the cake at the side nearest to you with a knife.

8. Apply yam paste evenly over the surface of the sheet cake. With the shorter side/breadth facing you (if using 10 x 14 inch pan), roll the cake up tightly to form a swiss roll.  Wrap with cling film and place in the fridge to chill and set before serving
