Swabian currant cake

Prepare a shortcrust pastry from the ingredients. Wrap it in cling film and refrigerate for about an hour. Beat the 4 egg whites until stiff peaks form. When the peaks are almost firm, add the sugar, then stir in the cornstarch at the end. Grease a springform pan, roll out the pastry, and pour into the pan. Form a raised edge. Carefully fold the currants into the beaten peaks and pour into the pan. Bake in a preheated oven at 160°C (top/bottom heat) for about 50 minutes. Fry the flaked almonds in 1 tablespoon of butter, adding a little sugar at the end if desired, and scatter over the finished cake.
