  • 6g self-raising flour
  • 3 tsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp vanilla essence
   
     
Methods:    

1.

Preheat oven to 170°C.  Line and grease a round 8-inch baking tin.

2.

Combine egg white and castor sugar. Whisk until the mixture is stiff, then leave aside.

3.

In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese, egg yolks and margarine until the mixture is smooth.

4.

Add lemon juice and fold in self-raising flour into the cream cheese mixture.

Note: Bain marie, also known as water bath, is a style of baking where the baking tin is placed in a larger, water-filled container to stabilize the heat reaching the food.  Also useful for keeping sauces warm or melting foods like chocolate that burn easily.
