Beat the eggs with the sugar. Add the zest of 1 orange and the juice of both oranges.
Then, add the melted butter, corn starch, and baking powder. Mix well.
Grease a baking tray and place a sheet of parchment paper at the bottom. Pour the batter in (it is quite liquid, but don't worry!).
Bake for 15 minutes at 350°F (180°C).
Remove from the oven and immediately unmold onto a clean cloth or a surface that can be easily flipped. Sprinkle sugar over the entire surface.
Place another cloth on top of the cake and flip it over. Then roll it to form your swiss roll. Let it cool.
And there you have it, your orange swiss roll is ready!

You should add the wax paper needs to go up the sides as well as bottom or the mix leaks under the wax paper and ruins the roll.

So I tried this, followed exactly. Turned out more like scrambled eggs. Delicious, but not like what I had in Portugal. Maybe the lack of flour kept it from turning into a cake?
