Today I tried the Dukan sponge cake (page 152 of recipe book).
Four eggs separated, and beat the whites until stiff
No aspartame, so substituted with 20 g granulated splenda
in a mixer added yolks,
Splenda
Grated peel of a lemon
40g of white wings corn cornflour ( in Australia much cornflour is made from wheat).
The goop was too thick, probably should add some more moisture, maybe yoghurt???
Folded in egg whites, but yolk goop did not mix in very well....
Cooked it in a spring form cake tin regardless... For 20 minutes at 180.
It is meant to be two servings.
The result????
Well the taste was okay, but quite souffleish.
3/10
Need to try again.
I am an Australian fan of the Dukan Diet and I have some time to try out some of the recipes (with modifications for the Australian context and what I have in my stores), take photos (sadly missing in the diet books) and get my family's opinion. If you decide to try Dukan for yourself, please remember to first discuss with your GP.
