    Wash the beaters and in a separate bowl beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks, this will take around 5 minutes.

    Pour into your lined tin and bake for 20 minutes.

    Once cooked remove from the oven and cover with a sheet of baking powder followed by a damp tea towel, leave to cool.

  8. 8

    To make the filling: pop all of the filling ingredients into a food processor and whizz until a thick smooth puree has formed. Set to one side.

  9. 9

    To assemble your roll: Once the sponge is completely cool cover the top with a chopping board and flip. Peel off the under layer of paper.

  10. 10

    Cover the entire piece of sponge with a nice thick layer of filling working to the edges.

  11. 11
