Green Tea Swiss Roll (Génoise)

By Rumblingtummy @RumblingTummi
I love green tea, unfortunately not the family.  So the only time I can practice Green Tea Swiss Roll will be, to bake and bring for a party.
I remembered I bought a bottle of Bakeable green tea powder but somehow I cannot find it anymore.  So I had to use the one from Korea which does not really give a nice color to it.  Thus I have a add a little drop of green colouring.  Guess it is okay as I won't be feeding this to kids but adults only.
Green Tea Swiss Roll (Génoise)
Learnings: I thought that this swiss roll using a Génoise base will be dry.  Though the cake is not cottony texture but it turned out really soft that I almost fear that I will not be able to roll it.  Luckily the thickness save the day.  In fact, this texture is very light, soft and moist.
This time round, I blitz the red bean into a paste and incorporated the whipping cream just to make into a paste. 
Perhaps next time, I will sieve the bean paste to give it a smoother texture.  Thanks J for your feedback.
Shared the remaining cake with the neighbor and she loves this.
