Step 1
1. Preheat the oven to 160 degrees. Line two cake pans with parchment paper and spray with oil. Sift flour, 1 1/4 cups sugar, baking powder, and salt together into a large bowl. In another bowl, beat egg yolks, water, oil, zest, and vanilla extract with a mixer at high speed. Add to the flour mixture and stir until smooth. In another large bowl, beat egg whites with cream of tartar using a mixer. Add the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar and beat at high speed. Using a rubber spatula, fold in one-quarter of the egg whites into the batter, then gently add the remaining whites. Do not overmix, otherwise the cake will become too dense and lose its lightness.
