3 eggs
60 g caster sugar
85 g self-raising flour
1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
150 ml very low-fat strawberry fromage frais
150 g strawberries, halved or sliced
1 tbsp icing sugar
Preheat oven to 200°C/ 400°F/ gas 6. Line a Swiss roll tin with non-stick parchment paper.
Whisk the eggs and sugar together in a clean, dry bowl until pale and light in texture.
Sift in the flour and cocoa powder, and, using a metal spoon, fold in gently but thoroughly in a figure-of-eight movement, so the mixture is evenly coloured.
Pour the mixture into the Swiss roll tin and spread out evenly with a palette knife.
Bake in the oven for 8–10 minutes, until the cake is well risen and springy to the touch when pressed gently with a finger.
Turn out carefully onto a large sheet of greaseproof paper. Peel away the lining paper and trim the edges of the chocolate sponge. Cover with a clean, damp tea towel and set aside to cool.
When cold, spread the strawberry fromage frais over the sponge and cover with the strawberries.
Roll up the roulade tightly, using the greaseproof paper to help you.
Place the roulade on a serving plate, seam-side down, and dust lightly with icing sugar. Cut into slices and serve.
