How to make Doremon cake with green tea filling

Mix the cake flour and let it rest
Then, slowly add 60gr of sifted flour and 2gr of baking powder into the egg mixture. Stir the mixture until the batter is smooth and no longer lumpy.
Once the mixture is well combined, cover it with plastic wrap and let the batter rest for 15 minutes.
Tip:
- To prevent the cake batter from becoming tough, chewy, and hard, you should stir the mixture in one direction and mix quickly for no more than 1 minute.
- Avoid letting the batter rest for too long, as this can cause the cake to deflate easily after pan-frying and not rise fluffy.
-
Making green tea filling
First, heat 100ml of unsweetened fresh milk until warm, then add 5gr of finely sifted matcha powder and stir well.
In a separate bowl, beat 1 chicken egg with 30gr of sugar and 15gr of corn starch. Next, slowly pour the egg mixture into the matcha milk and stir well.
Then, pour the mixture into a pot through a sieve. Stir evenly over low heat until it thickens.
Finally, add 10gr of unsalted butter, stir once more, then turn off the heat and let it cool.

Frying Doremon cakes
Place a non-stick pan on the stove and heat it over medium-low heat, then add a little cooking oil and use a paper towel to wipe around the surface of the pan.
Next, stir the batter well, scoop 1 ladle of batter, and pour it from a height; the batter will spread evenly and form a circle.
Fry the cake on low heat for about 2 minutes; when you see small bubbles appearing on the surface, flip the cake over and continue frying for about 30 seconds to 1 minute until cooked. Repeat this process until you finish the remaining batter.

Finished product
Finally, place the green tea filling between two pieces of doremon cake, and it is ready to enjoy.
The doremon cake stuffed with green tea is soft and fluffy, lightly fragrant with green tea, and has a rich sweetness from flour and butter. This cake served with a glass of unsweetened fresh milk will enhance the delicious aroma even more!

Distinguishing between regular green tea powder and Japanese green tea powder (matcha)
- Matcha powder is a fine powder made from 100% young tea buds. This type of powder is completely different from green tea powder in terms of nutritional value and price, as green tea powder is made from only 30% young tea buds and the remaining 70% is young tea leaves.
- Matcha powder has a bright green color and a sweet aftertaste that is different from green tea powder, which has a dark green color, may be slightly yellowish, and has a bitter astringent taste.
Suggestions for where to buy green tea powder
- You can buy matcha powder at baking ingredient stores, supermarkets, or on e-commerce websites.
- When purchasing, make sure to carefully check the packaging, expiration date of the product to ensure safety!
