For one serving:

  • 2 eggs
  • 80g flour
  • 20g red pomelo flesh
  • 15ml oil
  • 80ml water
  • 15g sugar

Instructions

  • Crack 2 eggs into the aluminum foil pan and add 20g of red pomelo flesh.
  • Pour 15ml of oil into the pan and shake it to evenly coat the bottom.
  • Add 10g of sugar, 40g of flour, and 40ml of water to the pan.
  • Stir clockwise with chopsticks until the mixture becomes a pale yellow batter.
  • Add 5g of sugar, 40g of flour, and 40ml of water to the pan.
  • Continue stirring with chopsticks until the mixture becomes a pale yellow batter.
  • Place the pan on the air fryer basket and bake at 180°C for 15 minutes.
  • Open the air fryer, carefully remove the pan, and flip the cake using chopsticks or a spoon.
  • Continue baking at 180°C for 8 minutes.
  • Remove and serve.

Additional Notes

  • If you prefer a sweeter taste, you can add an extra 10g of sugar.
  • The amount of red pomelo flesh can be adjusted, but it is best not to exceed 40g per serving to avoid affecting the appearance of the finished cake.
  • "Batter" refers to a mixture with no lumps of flour and an even color throughout.
  • The aluminum foil pan will be hot right out of the oven. Use tongs or heat-resistant materials like a damp cloth to handle it.
