Stage 2 - 3 min.
Mix 70 g flour and 70 g potato starch.
Stage 3 - 3 min.
Put 3 eggs and 100 g caster sugar into a food mixer bowl.
Stage 4 - 5 min.
Beat on high speed until the mixture is light like a mousse.
Stage 5 - 3 min.
Sieve the flour and potato flour into the bowl.
Stage 6 - 5 min.
Gently fold in the flour, just until it is incorporated into the frothy egg mixture.
This is the tricky part of the recipe. This needs to be done rapidly but gently to keep as much air as possible in the mixture. It is best to lean the bowl over on its side and use a soft spatula to lift and turn the mixture.
