Place the egg yolks, vanilla extract, 50g sugar and lemon zest in a medium sized bowl and whisk together lightly to combine. With an electric beater, whisk the egg whites to stiff peaks, then gradually add in the remaining 50g sugar and mix till thick. Mix together the ground almonds, baking powder and salt and stir into the egg yolk mixture. It should become thick. Next, fold in 1/3 of the whipped egg whites to loosen, followed by the remaining 2/3 trying to keep as much air in as possible. Carefully pour the mixture into a 9 inch round cake tin lined with baking paper and cook at 175°C for 30-35 minutes.
