Sift flour and baking powder together and fold into the meringue alternately with yolks, adding gradually; do not stir. Spread the batter onto a sheet of parchment paper on a baking tray, smooth it out, and bake in a preheated oven at 200 °C fan for about 8–10 minutes. Remove onto a kitchen towel dusted with sugar, lift off the parchment, and roll the sponge. Cover with the towel and let cool.
