Today is my hubby’s birthday. It is complete Lockdown here. Decided to make the cake with the ingredients available and for a change thought of a variety with two colours. Final slides with jaggery and sugar.
Ingredients
Mix 1
Wheat flour 1 cup, baking soda 1/3tsp., baking powder 1/2 tsp., fennel seeds 1/ tsp. Sieve the wheat flour and add the rest of the ingredients.
Wet ingredients
Vegetable oil 1/4 cup,
Boiled milk in room temperature 1 glass,
Grated jaggery 3/4 cup,
In a mixer grinder, put the ingredients and make it into a smoothie.
Add the smoothie to the flour mix.
Whisk it thoroughly on one direction to make a smooth batter.
Mix 2
Wheat flour 1 cup, baking soda 1/3 tsp., baking powder 1/2 tsp. Mix the ingredients and sieve it to remove any lumps in it. Add 1/2 fennel seeds.
Wet ingredients
Sugar 3/4 cup, vegetable oil 1/4 cup, boiled milk in room temperature 1 glass. Grind it smooth in a mixer.
Pour the mix into the dry ingredients. Whisk it thoroughly in one direction only. Make sure it is mixed well.
Heat a kadai to the maximum, for about 10 minutes.
Brush oil in the cake pan, transfer 3/4 of the mix one by one. Finally pour the rest of the mix in circles on top. Tap the pan to level the batter surface. Transfer the pan into the kadai. Bring the flame to low. Sprinkle 1 tsp. of sesame seeds on the top. Allow to cook. After 20 minutes place some raisins and cashew nut splits on the top. After 25-30 minutes run a tooth pick into the cake to make sure it is cooked. Total 45-50 minutes required for cooking. Cake is delicious and so soft. Above all easy to cook. No oven, no eggs, no butter and no maida. Whole wheat is the healthy option. It is the family cake liked by all.
