In a bowl beat egg whites until foamy.

Gradually beat in sugar. Set aside. Beat egg yolks until thick and lemon colored.

Stir in water and vanilla.

Sift flour twice with baking powder.

Stir flour into egg-yolk mixture by hand, until thoroughly combined.

Fold in egg-white mixture.

Pour mixture into 2 (8-inch) round parchment-lined cake pans and bake at 350℉ (180℃) about 30 to 40 minutes, or until wood pick inserted in center comes out dry.

When cool, divide each cake into 2 layers. Whip cream.

Add crushed strawberries with juice to rest of whipped cream.

Then spread on top of layers.
