  3. Beat egg yolk with orange juice and sugar until well combined, then add to dry ingredients.
  4. Mix into a dough, press with your fingers (it helps if they’re wet) into a lined and greased square cake tin.
  5. Sprinkle the top with a little raw sugar and bake in a preheated oven at 180°c until lightly golden brown.
  6. Cut while still hot and then allow to cool on a wire rack.
