⑥Put a parchment sheet on a oven tray, fold each side, and pour ⑤ in them. 


⑦Bake ⑥ in the oven for 10 minutes. (on middle or upper shelf) you can cover the cake with the oven tray itself so that the moisture won't go away.
 

 

⑧After the cake is cooled down, put whipped cream on, with diced strawberries lined in a row closer to your side, and roll all at once.





You might want to put a little more whipped cream under the strawberries.
