Rava Cake
Ingredients
- 1½ cup Rava, semolina/sooji
- ½ cup Wheat flour
- ½ cup Granulated sugar
- 1 tsp Cardamom powder
- ½ cup Curd, yogurt
- 1 cup Milk, warm
- ¼ cup Vegetable oil
- 1½ tsp Baking powder
- ½ tsp Baking soda
- 2 Egg
- ½ tsp Vanilla essence, optional
- Salt, a pinch
- 1 tsp Pistachios, crushed
Instructions
- Start by grinding semolina, granulated sugar, cardamom powder, and a pinch of salt in a blender until it forms a coarse powder.
- Next, gently mix in the curd to this mixture until smooth, ensuring there are no lumps. Let this sit for about 15 to 20 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and oil to create your wet mix. If you prefer an eggless version, simply replace each egg with ¼ cup of yogurt.
- Now, combine the wet ingredients with your semolina-curd mixture, mixing well.
- Slowly add sieved wheat flour, baking soda, and baking powder to your mix, using a gentle cut and fold method.
- Pour your ready cake batter into a greased cake tin. Bake it in a preheated oven at 350°F for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the cake turns a lovely golden brown.
- Once baked, take the cake out of the oven and let it cool for at least 15 minutes.
- Garnish the cooled cake with pistachios, then slice it up.
- Enjoy your Rava Cake with a hot cup of tea or coffee!
