Nutritional Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (for the filling)

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can I use a different filling?

Yes! You can substitute the whipped cream with buttercream, fruit preserves, or any other filling of your choice.

How do I prevent the cake from cracking?

Make sure to roll the cake gently while it is still warm. Using parchment paper to lift and roll can also help prevent cracking.

How should I store the Swiss roll?

Store the Chocolate Swiss Roll in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 15×10-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs and granulated sugar until thick and pale. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually fold in the dry ingredients, then add the melted butter and mix until just combined.
  5. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
  6. Once baked, immediately invert the cake onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Remove the parchment paper and roll the cake up in the towel. Allow it to cool completely.
  7. While the cake cools, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form.
  8. Once the cake has cooled, unroll it and spread the whipped cream filling evenly over the surface. Roll the cake back up gently, without the towel this time.
  9. Wrap the rolled cake in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.

lamb and haricot bean stew

Breton braised lamb & haricot beans

Put the beans in a saucepan and cover with water. Add the quartered onion, the halved carrot and halved celery, the bay leaves, parsley stalks and peppercorns. Bring to the boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 30-40 mins until the beans are soft. Drain well and reserve the cooking liquid, discarding the onion, carrot and celery.

While the beans are cooking, heat half the olive oil in a heavy-based flameproof casserole. Brown the lamb in batches over a high heat. As each batch is cooked, remove it and set aside on a plate. Reduce the heat, add the chopped onion to the pan with the diced celery and carrot and cook until well coloured. Add the garlic and cook for another couple of mins.

Return the lamb to the pan and add all the remaining ingredients, except the beans. Bring to the boil, reduce the heat to very low and cover, then cook for 2 hrs. Add the beans 45 mins before the end of cooking time. Stir the lamb round every so often. If the lamb looks dry, add some of the bean cooking liquid.

Remove the lid for the last 30 mins of cooking time, and season. This helps the cooking liquid to reduce. You should end up with a thick stew of tender lamb and soft beans. Scatter over the parsley and serve.
