6. Then, gradually add the flour. Keep mixing by hand until well combined.
7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf tin, sprinkle the top with chocolate chips.
8. Bake in for 25 mintues. Then reduce the heat to 140℃, and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
9. Cool for 10 minutes before transferring onto a wire rack to cool.

*This recipe is counting on the egg whites to give it body and  volume. Therefore, it is crucial to fold the white mixture obtained gently and by hand, using a plastic or a wooden spoon to preserve the air and prevent the egg mixture for seperating and returning to liquid. 
*You must use whipped egg whites immediately before they lose volume. Therefore, only make whipped egg whites when you're able to use them right away and don't store them for later.éé
