I adapted the recipe and modified the steps a little so that I need to use only one mixer bowl ;-)
Ingredients:(A) 4 nos. large eggs yolks
1/4 tsp pandan paste
1/4 tsp salt
(B) 85 mls sunflower/corn oil
125 mls pandan juice
( 8 pandan leaves blended with 125 mls water, sieved)
(C) 150 gm cake flour
1 tsp baking powder
(D) 4 nos. large egg whites
140 gm caster sugar
1/2 tsp cream of tartar
Method:
Pre-heat oven at 170 degree C.
Separate egg yolks from whites. Use a fork and beat up (A) till well mix.
In a mixer bowl beat up (D) till stiff peak forms (i.e. when bowl is inverted the beaten egg whites remain inside).
Add in (A) into the mixer bowl and mix well, then add in (B) and also stir well.
Add in (C) and fold in gently till well blended.
Pour batter into a 20 cm. chiffon cake pan lined at the bottom.
Bang the pan on a hard surface to release the bubbles.
Bake for 35-40 mins.
When the cake is ready, remove from the oven and give it a bang on a hard surface. Then invert the pan and cool the cake. When the cake is completely cool, remove cake from the pan.

Hi Mong
Thanks for dropping by.
If you're in Singapore, you can get them from supermarkets or baking supplies stores. If not, you can try the Asian supermarkets. It comes in a small bottle like the vanilla essence bottle but it's green in color with the pandan essence.

hi, i'm new in baking and stuff..
really inspired to start working out in the kitchen after reading yr blog.
hope you dont mind me asking some questions
is pandan paste=pandan juice?
may i know what cream of tartar refers to? sounds like tar tar sauce hee..
Hi amanda
I'm glad to be your inspiration :-)
Pandan paste is not pandan juice.
It comes in a bottle like vanilla essence except that it has the pandan flavour and coloring.
Cream of tartar is a powder important to the chiffon cake. It helps to hold up the beaten egg whites. It's definitely not a sauce. You can get this at the baking section of any supermarket.

Hi Sheryl
I'm glad you have success on you chiffon cake and thanks for dropping by.
Hi,
I love making chiffon cakes! My problem is that when I invert the cake pan, the cake drops out after about 15 minutes!! Is that normal?
Thanks for putting in so much effort to keep your blog so interesting and informative!!
Hi oi Lin
I have yet to encounter the problem of a dropping chiffon cake.
But I understand that if the chiffon pan had some residual oil in it or if the cake had been overbaked, you can have this problem.

The pandan chiffon does not have coconut milk in this recipe. Is it correct?
Hi anonymous
This pandan chiffon uses pandan juice .... no coconut milk.
