Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 large Eggs separated
  • 2 tbsp Milk
  • 0.5 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 0.25 cup All-purpose flour sifted
  • 0.5 tsp Baking powder
  • 3 tbsp Sugar divided
  • Neutral oil or butter for cooking

Equipment

  • Non-stick pan with lid
  • Hand mixer or whisk

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Whisk the egg yolks with milk and vanilla. Sift in the flour and baking powder, then mix until smooth.
  2. Beat the egg whites until foamy, gradually add sugar, and whip until stiff glossy peaks form.
  3. Gently fold one-third of the meringue into the yolk batter, then carefully fold in the rest.
  4. Cook tall scoops of batter in a lightly greased pan over very low heat. Add water, cover, and steam for 6–7 minutes per side.

Notes

Cook on low heat and handle gently to maintain the fluffy, soufflé-like texture. Serve immediately for best results.
