Line a Parchment paper to fit in 30 × 30cm baking tray. Prepare one more piece of paper to finish the cake roll.

Melt unsalted butter on low heat.Turn off the heat when the unsalted butter melt.Shift in all-purpose flour and corn starch.Mix well until incorporated.Turn the heat to low and cook until the butter and flour mixture forms a roux.

Transfer to a bowl and add in two egg yolks.Stir vigorously until thoroughly combined.Add the rest of the egg yolks and mix to combine.Easy to mix.Set aside While we are making meringue. 〈Meringue〉Start mixing on low To break up the firm part.↓Add in 1/3 of that sugar. Whisk until the sugar is dissolved.↓Add in the next 1/3 of the sugar and mix until the sugar dissolves.↓add in the last 1/3 of the sugar and continue mixing on low.↓When all the sugar is dissolved, turn the speed to high and whisk until the stiff peaks form. Add 1/3 of the meringue to the egg mixture. Use a whisk; tap the meringue to combine with the egg mixture.※What I am doing is mixing the egg mixture with the meringue without deflating. Then add in the next one-third of the meringue, and repeat the process.When your cake batter is mixed, about 80% switch to the spatula and Scoop the batter up to the center to ensure no meringue remains. Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan.Move around the cake butter to fill all the corners like this. Pop in the oven and bake it for 13 to 14 minutes until the surface is golden brown.
Tap the baking tray onto your countertop and take it out onto a wire rack.Peel off the paper from the side.
