MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06
 
      Title: Strawberries & Cream Swill Roll
 Categories: Cakes, Desserts, Fruits, Dairy
      Yield: 5 Servings
 
      4 lg Eggs
    100 g  Caster sugar
    100 g  Self-raising flour

MMMMM--------------------------FILLING-------------------------------
    150 ml Double cream
     25 g  Caster sugar
           Seeds from 1 vanilla pod
    100 g  Strawberries; thin sliced,
           - + extra whole strawberries
           - to garnish
 
  Line a Swiss roll tin measuring about 25cm x 15cm with
  non-stick parchment paper, leaving the edges sticking up
  over the sides. Preheat the oven to 180ºC/350ºF/gas 4.
  Whisk together the eggs and sugar until pale and creamy and
  doubled in volume.
  
  Sift the flour and fold into the mixture a little at a time.
  Pour into the prepared tin, spreading it evenly. Bake in the
  oven for 10 to 12 minutes until the sponge is just golden
  and lightly springy to the touch.
  
  Cut a piece of parchment paper slightly bigger than the
  sponge and dust heavily with caster sugar. Turn the sponge
  out on to the paper and carefully peel away the lining
  parchment. Leave to cool, covered with a tea towel.
  
  To make the filling, whisk together the cream, sugar and
  vanilla seeds until the cream forms fairly firm peaks.
  Spread over the sponge, leaving a 2cm border to allow for
  spreading when rolling up.
  
  Lay the sliced strawberries on top, then gently roll up the
  sponge to form a thick log. Transfer to a serving plate,
  making sure the seam of the sponge is facing down.
  
  Garnish with the extra strawberries and serve in thick
  slices. As an alternative to cream and strawberries, you
  could use good-quality strawberry or raspberry jam with some
  vanilla buttercream.
  
  Serves 4-6
