Instructions:

Step 1:

Separate the whites from the yolks into two different bowls.

Step 2:

Add 2 tablespoons of cooking oil and 3 tablespoons of milk to the egg yolks. Whisk until well combined.

Step 3:

Sift the cake flour directly into the yolk mixture to remove lumps. Whisk well until it becomes smooth.

Step 4:

Add 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix well then set aside.

Step 5:

Add 1/4 teaspoon of lemon juice to the egg whites and whip on medium-high speed. When it has large bubbles, add 1/3 of the sugar. Continue whipping, then add another 1/3 of the sugar when small bubbles appear. Whisk again, and add the remaining when there are visible lines. Turn the setting to medium-low speed and whip until it lifts to straight, sharp, and dry peaks.

Step 6:

Add 1/3 of the meringue to the batter, then fold with a silicone spatula. Add the rest of the batter then mix again.

Step 7:

Prepare your baking mold by wrapping the bottom with aluminum foil, then pour the batter from a high position. Use a spatula to smoothen the surface.

Step 8:

Wrap the top with aluminum foil to prevent moisture from dripping down into the cake batter.

Step 9:

Place it into a steamer with boiling water, cover it, then steam for about 45 minutes on medium heat.

Step 10:

After steaming, take it out and remove the aluminum foil. Thump it twice then turn it upside down onto a cooling rack to let it cool. Once cooled, press from the edge to the middle with your hand to remove the cake.
