Preparation

  1. Separate the whites from the yolks. The egg whites will not be used in this recipe, but you can save them to prepare a meringue or an egg white pudding. Beat the egg yolks and pass them through a fine-mesh sieve into a large, dry, clean container.

  2. Bring a pan to the boil with water and sugar. Let it boil until it reaches the pearl stage. Turn off and let cool. Add the ground almonds and mix everything together.

  3. Turn on the oven at 180ºC.

  4. Add the yolks, eggs and melted butter, stirring constantly. Mix everything until it is very homogeneous.

  5. Pour this mixture into a mold greased with oil or butter and sprinkled with sugar.

  6. Bake in the oven, preheated to 180ºC, in a bain-marie, for 20 to 30 minutes.

  7. Remove and let cool. The secret is not to unmold it hot (as the lis breeze breaks it), nor cold (as it may not release). Unmold with a knife and serve.
