I ba...Hi Nandita<BR/><BR/>I want to thank you for the recipe. I baked it with some alterations. The cake was very dense & wasnt correctly sweet too. Though it looked very much like what you've posted, but I was not fully satisfied. It probably could be the alterations that I did. Or maybe I should have added that oil you mentioned in the comment. I will be posting my variation about tomorrow. Could you pls do me the favor n go thru the recipe to find out if wht I did would really make a lot of difference. Basically I didnt have the Splenda & jaggery - so I added about 3 tspn each of more sugar more & i/o of jaggery I added brown sugar??

Once I read 'semolina' in the recipe, I knew where the dense texture came from.

The cake is fairly dense, something you can dip into your coffee and it wont melt in- I expected it to be so as there is no oil / butter / eggs in the recipe. If you substituted half cup of oil into the 1 3/4 cups water, you would get a softer cake.<BR/><BR/>Shankari- do try and substitute some oil as I've mentioned above-if you'd like a softer cake and if you are not to keen on fat-free cake.<BR/><BR/>Pushpa- A wow coming from the baking queen herself, is quite an honour :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08343211073306086159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23919567.post-1154144414463565032006-07-29T09:10:00.000+05:302006-07-29T09:10:00.000+05:30This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08343211073306086159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23919567.post-1154117971650805382006-07-29T01:49:00.000+05:302006-07-29T01:49:00.000+05:30Oh wow!!!!
