Cooking Instructions
1.
Line cake tin with baking paper, baking paper should be 1 cm higher than the edges.
2.
Put Cream Cheese (1 3/4 cups) in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave every 10-15 seconds then take the cream cheese out and stir until it’s warm and soft.
3.
Preheat the oven to steam bake at 240 degrees C (460 degrees F).
4.
Mix soft cream cheese with Granulated Sugar (2/3 cup) until all sugar has dissolved. Add Eggs (3) 1 at a time to whisk gently until smooth but prevent creating air bubbles.
5.
Put Cake Flour (2 1/3 Tbsp) in a small bowl with 1/3 of Thickened Cream (1 cup), and whisk until there are no lumps. Add remainder of thickened cream mix well.
6.
Pour cream mixture through a strainer into the cream cheese mixture, add Vanilla Essence (to taste) and 1 tsp of Lemon Juice (1), and mix well. Pour the mixture into the lined cake tin and put it on shelf 2 (middle of the oven). Bake for 30 minutes.
7.
Meanwhile, pour Water (1/3 cup) into a saucepan, then add Granulated Sugar (3/4 cup) and Fresh Strawberries (1 cup). Place over medium heat, and simmer for 20 minutes. Strain when cool and set aside.
8.
Remove from the oven when the cake is wobbly with a dark color on top. Leave at room temperature until warm then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until completely chilled.
9.
When cheesecake is chilled, slice it into 8 pieces and garnish it with whipped cream and strawberry compote.
