Ingredients of batter :  (8 inch/20 cm round)

80  gm  cake flour
3  egg  yolks  (I use grade B)
14  gm  caster sugar
35  gm  vegetable oil
45  gm  milk
1/8  tsp  salt
2  ripe  bananas, about 240 gm


Ingredients of egg whites :

4  egg  whites
40  gm  caster sugar
1/2  tsp  cream of tartar


Method :

1.  Preheat oven to 165'C/330'F.  Use a small food processor to process the bananas into paste.  Set aside.

2.  Mix the egg yolks with 14 gm of sugar until smooth.  Add oil, milk and mashed bananas.  Combine very well.  Sift in cake flour and salt, incorporate all ingredients well until you get a smooth batter.

3.  With an electric mixer, beat egg whites first for a while until bubbles form.  Add cream of tartar.  Add 1/3 of the 40 gm of sugar at a time.  Combine well between the adds, until stiff peaks form.

4.  Fold in the egg whites into the batter in 3 batches.  Add 1/3 of egg whites at a time in order to easily incorporate the egg whites.

5.  Transfer the batter into the cake mould that shouldn't be non-stick or greased.  Pop in the preheated oven and bake for 55 to 60 minutes until done.  Remove from oven and immediately invert the cake mould.  Let it cool completely.  Carefully remove from the cake mould.  ENJOY!!!
