 Tropical Fruit Gateau 

Ingredients: Butter: 25 gm; Sugar: 25 gm; Eggs: 2; Flour: 75 gm; Cocoa powder: 25 gm; Baking powder: 1 ½ tsp; Filling:  Whipped cream: 200 ml; Ripe mango: 1; Passion fruit: 1

Method

Preheat oven. Line a 275mm x 175mm (11” x 7”) tin with non-stick baking paper. Put the butter and sugar into a mixing bowl and beat together until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add the beaten eggs, half at a time, and beat well. The mixture may start to look a bit curdled, but this won’t be a problem once the dry ingredients are added. Sieve the flour, cocoa and baking powder into the egg mixture and fold together  thoroughly, taking care not to lose too much of the air in the beaten eggs. Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking tin and level to an even thickness with a spatula (it will end up quite thin).


 
Place immediately into the preheated oven for 6-8 minutes. Remove sponge from oven and immediately turn out of the tin onto a clean, firm surface. Peel off the baking paper, then lay the baking paper back on top and put aside to cool completely. While the sponge is cooling whip the cream to a soft peak. Peel and slice the mango into strips and half the passion fruit. When sponge is cool, remove the baking paper and then half so that you have two equal sized rectangles of sponge.

Spread half the whipped cream over one half of the sponge, then top with the thin slices of mango. Using a teaspoon, scoop out the flesh from one half of the passion fruit and drop small amounts all over the mango and cream mixture. Put the other half of the sponge on top of the mango and cream. Now, top it with the remaining whipped cream, the rest of the mango slices, and then scoop out the other half of the passion fruit. Finally, put the flesh on top of the gateau. Keep in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
