Method

  1. 1

    Cream the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg yolks one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix the wheat flour and baking powder together. Alternately add the flour mixture and milk to the batter. Spread the batter into a thin layer (about 25 cm x 35 cm) on a baking sheet lined with greased baking paper.

  2. 2

    Wash and dry the beaters. Whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gradually add the sugar while continuing to whip until the mixture is stiff and glossy. Spread the meringue mixture over the batter. Sprinkle the chopped pistachios on top.

  3. 3

    Bake at 175 degrees for about 20 minutes, or until the surface of the meringue is light brown.

  4. 4

    Allow the cake sheet to cool, then cut it in half with a sharp knife. Remove the baking paper.

  5. 5

    Slice the ice cream into nine pieces.

  6. 6

    Place one half of the cake sheet onto a serving platter. Arrange the ice cream slices on top. Place the other half on top as a lid. Garnish with berries and mint. Serve immediately or store in the freezer until serving.
