You do this to add 'air' to the batter and make it fluffy crisp and light, first you must separate the egg yolk from the white, put the white into a clean grease free bowl and beat it with a whisk until it goes white and fluffy (takes ages by hand so use an electric whisk) then add this to the batter and fold it in, i.e. gently stir in the white into the batter so as not to knock out all the air you just whisked into it.

What is Fold in?

Some batters call for beaten egg whites to be added. Folding the whites in with a spatula keeps the air bubbles in them from breaking, which leads to a flat, heavy cake. Pour the whites into the batter, and using a spatula flat side up, gently distribute the whites from top to bottom of the bowl. Pour or spoon the batter gently into the pans to further avoid breaking the air bubbles.
