nice question.. of the many times i have made it about 80 of the times it has come out as fluffy as the store bought cake .. it has to do with the patience with which you whip / blend the mix to incorporate as much air into the batter as possible, and also your patience with the oven ( dont examine too frequently etc ) all the best ! cheers ! :-)
my oven has wrecked so what else subsitute can i use in place of it! and can i cook this in microwave if yeah then what precautions shud i need to take!
the sieve shown is the insert of the sieves we use for all flours here, made of stainless steel wire,. the purpose of this sieve is to prevent the direct conduction of heat to the batter, because you want the air in the box to heat up and transfer its heat to the batter.. any lidded container will work ( only DONT air-tight-close the container ) and dont ever use a micro wave.. it can be very discouraging ..cheers :)
in that case can i use the sieve used for covering milk containers or steel sieves used to filter flour?? well actually i have used microwave a lots of time n it cookz good! it got many recipies in it like brownies, muffins etc!
yes, cups could also be used as measures, in fact i use a large laddle as a measure for all my measuring out of anything and have found that each person have their own standard 'measure 'not necessarily in terms of any specific ounce, or milliliters etc.. but maybe it is better to have kitchen scales and measures according to some standard, since these are available easily these days. :)
i do not have an oven and haven't tried in an oven, so i dont really know.. but if i were to try, i would use about 300degrees centigrade but keep watching over it for it to boil and thicken to the required consistency before pouring it out .. maida is actually sold as "all purpose flour " in most countries.. and i think you should get it from almost any indian grocery store also ..thanks for viewing and commenting ! :)
no there is no water or oil, just a mesh to prevent the direct heat from reaching the batter..else you would find the bottom getting cooked fast while the top remains very soft. all the best !
thank you sir

Wow! Amazing! I especially love the improvised oven idea! Thank you for a great recipe! :)
Just a quick question: do you put the gas on high, low, or medium heat while you let the cake cook?
sweetgem123 3 years ago
thanks for your encouraging comments , i really appreciate it ! the gas is on its lowest possible flame, anything higher will burn the cake easily ..
oldernwiser0 3 years ago
Thankx a lot.....very easy method...but on the gas did u put vessels with water? or without? b'coz i did not understand.

is there water on the big pot, where the cake is placed?
mlsdd 3 years ago
yes.. it is very simple ..and no there is no water in the pot... only a steel gauze to prevent directly heating the bottom of the cake vessel ...:-)
