Sift flour, cornflour and baking powder together.Put aside.
Place margarine and water in a pan and heat gently until melted.Put side.
Whisk eggs and sugar in a heatproof bowl over a pan of simmering water until pale and thick.
Remove from heat and whisk until cool.
Lightly fold the flour into the cake mixture.
Bring the water and margarine to the boil and pour into the the mixture
