2 tablespoons granulated sugar
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons cooking oil
A few drops of vanilla extract (optional)

Ingredients for the Syrup:

20ml hot water
1/2 tbsp. granulated sugar
1 tsp. rum (optional)

Decoration:

200ml whipping cream
1 tbsp. granulated sugar
Strawberries

Directions - Sponge Cake:

  1. Put the egg and granulated sugar in a bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until it’s white and fluffy.
  2. Sift the flour and mix with a spatula until combined. Then mix in cooking oil and vanilla extract.
  3. Heat cooking oil in a frying pan. Pour half of the batter, cover, and cook on low for 4~5 minutes. When the surface becomes dry, remove it from the pan, wrap it with plastic wrap, and let it cool completely.
  4. Repeat the process with the other half of the batter.

Directions - Syrup:

  1. Mix hot water and sugar very well.
  2. Add rum if you like.

Directions - Decoration:

  3. Brush one layer of the sponge cake with syrup and coat the surface with the cream.
  4. Place cut strawberries over the creamed surface. Then coat again with the cream.
  5. Place another layer of sponge cake, and frost the top and sides with the cream.
  6. Pipe out some whipped cream and garnish with some strawberries.
