  1. Preheat

    Preheat the oven to 195C/175C fan.

  2. Whisk
    • eggs
    • salt
    • caster sugar

    In the bowl of a stand mixer or using a large bowl with an electric whisk, beat the eggs, salt, and sugar until pale, thick, and fluffy – about 15 minutes at a medium speed.

  3. Stir
    • plain flour
    • unsalted butter

    In a separate bowl, stir together the flour and baking powder, then melt the butter.

  4. Sift
    • plain flour
    • eggs
    • salt

    In three stages, sift the flour mixture over the egg mixture and gently fold in until there are no lumps.

  5. Drizzle
    • unsalted butter

    Drizzle the melted butter into the bowl in three stages, mixing after each addition.

  6. Pour

    Pour the batter into an 18cm x 28cm x 5cm tin. Bake for 25 mins or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.

  7. Cool
    • evaporated milk

    Once the cake is cool, whisk the evaporated, condensed, and whole milks in a saucepan until well combined. Heat until steaming, then remove from the heat.

  8. Pour
    • evaporated milk

    Poke holes all over the surface of the cake using a skewer or fork. Then, while the milk is still warm, slowly pour it over the cake, allowing it to soak into the holes.

  9. Refrigerate
    • evaporated milk

    Cover the cake and refrigerate for at least four hours, or ideally overnight, so that it can fully absorb the milk.

  10. Whip
    • double cream
    • condensed milk

    To make the topping, whip the double cream and condensed milk in a mixing bowl until soft peaks form.

  11. Arrange
    • strawberries
    • double cream

    Once the cake is chilled, spread the whipped cream evenly over the top. Arrange the strawberries on top, then serve the cake chilled.
