    Swiss rolls are so much fun to make, most of you think it is a complicated thing to make, but i am telling it is more easy than making any other cakes or desert because it just take less than 12 mins to bake and the batter can be made in less than 10 mins and it just need a handful of ingredients. Plus it has no fat in them so it is pretty healthy.

    Preparation Time : 20 mins
    Baking Time : 10 to 12 mins
    Makes : 10 slices

    Ingredients:
    Eggs - 3
    Powdered Sugar - ½ cup + 1.5 tblspn / 120 grams
    All Purpose Flour / Maida - 1 cup / 120 grams
    Vanilla Essence - 2 tsp
    Warm Water - 2 tblspn
    Jam - as needed ( I used a mixed fruit jam)
    Icing Sugar or Powdered sugar for sprinkling

    (My 1 cup measures 240 ml )

    Method:
    Preheat oven to 190 Degree C.
    Start by preparing a swiss roll pan by applying some oil over it, then line it with parchment paper and apply oil on that as well. Now sprinkle it with some flour and tap off the excess flour. Set this aside till use.
    Now take eggs in a bowl and beat till fluffy.
    Now add in sugar and beat till nice and fluffy again.
    Add in vanilla and warm water and beat till fluffy.
    Now sieve in flour two time and fold very gently till it is well combined,
    Pour this in prepared pan and spread thinly.
    Bake this for 10 to 12 mins.
    Remove it and let it cool for 2 mins.
    Spread a parchment paper on a table, sprinkle with some more powdered sugar or icing sugar. Flip the cake over the sugar. Peel off the parchment carefully. Cover the entire cake with a slightly damp cloth and let it cool completely.
    Now spread some jam all over it and carefully roll it.
    Place this in a tray and sprinkle with icing sugar.
    Slice and serve.

    line it with parchment paper

    Pin
    brush it with some more oil

    Pin
    Now if you are using granulated sugar, take it in a blender

    Pin
    make it into a powder..

    Pin
    Crack open 3 eggs in a large bowl
    Pin
    Use a electric beater to whip it up

    Pin
    now it is lightly whipped

    Pin
    Add in sugar 

    Pin
    whip till it is fluffy

    Pin
    Add in vanilla

    Pin
    and some warm water

    Pin
    beat it again..

    Pin
    beat till it is fluffy..this stage is really important because it will make the rolls soft

    Pin
    Now take flour in a sifter and sieve half of them in

    Pin
    once half of the flour is sifted

    Pin
    fold it gently in

    Pin
    once that batch is mixed

    Pin
    sieve the remaining flour in

    Pin
    now fold this very gently

    Pin
    once everything is poured

    Pin

    ta da

      I baked it for ten minutes. the appearance was same like your cake. But it was not spongy and flexible hence it could not be rolled. As I rolled, it broke in three parts 😛 and looked like a clumsy Swiss sandwich :)))...my brothers teased me a lott and I am sure it's going down in our family history records to narrate it to my children and grand-children. :-/ :)).
      Is there a possibility that by adding baking soda or baking powder it could have become spongy and flexible?

      @Myrai think u haven't whipped the egg enought. Whip it till it is airy and fluffy, that will give the fluffyness and flexiblity. baking soda and baking powder is not necessary
