   Add remaining egg whites and fold in gently with a scraper until the egg whites are combined.

   Pour into pan and spread evenly, smoothing the top as much as possible to ensure even baking.

    Remove from oven and use an offset knife to loosen the roll from the edges of the pan.

    Dust with icing sugar amd turn out onto a clean tea towel. Remove the parchment paper and dust with icing sugar.

    While still warm from the oven, roll the sponge and allow to cool before unrolling. This will allow the sponge to reroll later without cracking.
