simple christmas fruit cake

[concerty2k]

what to do in microwave chef..i only have that..

[concerty2k]

No chef I am not satisfied when your video comes to cake. I've seen so many reciepes & they came out wonderful!!!!! n yummy!! You need to maintain that here too...pls tell us the timings after which we need to add these things one by one.I joined the baking classes & my teacher told me that timing and the hand movement or your machine speed matters a lot..While adding soda we can't whisk hard the cake will burst, even the egg yolk is added later not with the egg white..Can you pls explain.

[vishakha2005]

u r wonderful, in another video i saw u mixing cola why u did not mix in fruitcake and whenever i make cake only outer portion is yellow but inside is white unlike yours which seems yellow inside,plz reply to me.

[machakare]

[rmsnyc2011]

Aww I love this guy! He is so sweet!! Thanks for the post. PS - I don't know what's going on with this speaking American debate, but some ignoramus probably made a stupid comment and hopefully has been corrected by the responses. I am going to make this, thanks!!

[iaadotlk1]

I love fruitcake. It is the spirit of Christmas in the fruitcake that I enjoy.

[madeitwithlove]

Basic fruit cake still has to be matured. All purpose flour should be used and certainly no baking powder! The cake does not require an rising agent apart from eggs as it should not have a sponge texture. It should be dark, packed with fruit, dense and after maturing for three months, it should be moist. Christmas cake can be baked and stored for a whole year. I bake my cake on christmas eve for the following year! Now that is christmas cake! Sorry NOT AUTHENTIC, needs to try harder.

[madeitwithlove]

This is not a christmas cake, it is light fruit cake served at tea time. Christmas cake takes a long time to bake and is matured for at least three months for all the flavours of the fruit and alcohol to combine. Sanjay stick to the cuisine you know best or learn how to make this cake in the traditional way. I am an expert fruit cake baker and felt that you've let down bakers every where by not researching how a christmas cake should be baked. Take this opportunity to bake it properly!

[rseaberg1]

Having owned a bakery for 20 years I'm a big fan of fruitcake. But only if it does not contain citron, those little bits of candied citrus. To strong and bitter! Nice upbeat video. Keep up the good work!

[narutoseng]

I love all your video!!0_0

[Kirby4ever101]

V#71,000/5*****

[cheesesteak71]

is that half a teaspoon or half a tablespoonful of baking soda????!!

[andreaprodan]

The best thing about the recipe is the silence...and expression on chef's face as he tastes his finished product,

Wunderbar!!!

[andreaprodan]

what was that he saw once in a 'Jesus christ movie'? Dried alm leaves?!

[cheesesteak71]

@andreaprodan i don't know why but the way he says Jesus Christ Movie really cracks me up!

[duitola]

Can I use a microwave? Will it come good?

Thanks in advanced!

[orupennu]

i meant he forgot to add jeera :)) leave the dates alone man:))

[orupennu]

u forgot add jeera sir:))))))

[nightmareboy101]

at the last part, "my dates" hahahahahaaa i laughed soooooo hard ^_^

[bongomake]

Can you tell the exact measure you are adding to your cake making, the video is good but doesnt show how much we should add to make a cake ao that the outcome is perfect?

[MercurysGirl]

@bongomake

"For this preparation you need equal quantities of butter, dry fruits, flour, sugar, and eggs (300 grams) + 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder. Preheat the oven at 325°F for 45 minutes and your fruitcake will be ready".

[basant27]

@MercurysGirl If i have a microwave, how much time shall i make it to bake

[dardaf904]

Measure by weight 300 grams each of butter, sugar, eggs, flour, and dried fruits and nuts. Add 1 tsp of baking soda, and add some spices (cinnamon, ground cloves, cordamom). It doesn't tell you the exact measurement for spices... I would advise 1 tsp. 1/2 cup of rum. follow the directions as given on the video and remember to cut the oven off and leave it open for approximately 10 minutes when your cake is done. Good luck and have a Mery Christmas.

[manpreetsingh9243]

thnks a lot for correct advice , i was in need of that

can u plz tell, me rum is added to cakes or pastries

[dardaf904]

rum adds flavor to your cake. Try it.

[manpreetsingh9243]

i understand but is not there any alternative of this,

like some type of fruit juice or some thing like that

[dardaf904]

@manpreetsingh9243 Yes sometimes orange juice and lemon juice is added to cakes but I don't know how orange juice can be added to fruitcake....I wouldn't use lemon. Try google...or just try orange juice in aconcentrated form with fruit cake....something like maybe 1/4 cup. If you are going to do that....don't use the green cherries and try adding some dried pinnapple...no dates either.....

[manpreetsingh9243]

can u plz tell me why rum is added in pastries or cakes

[Magictrix2y4]

u gotta love this!! and garam masala in a fruit cake! interesting!!

[nintendo09]

a little hard to understand but good video

[chettychat]

Thanks Chef, indeed a great recipe equal amount of weight for all ingredients makes a perfect beautiful cake. Appreciate and love your humor.

[ayeshaayaz]

dear chef can u plz tell the exact quantities used in it,?

[ASTRALIND]

[kaamyaable]

Hi Vahchef,

Your fruit cake looks awesome.

I have two questions. Can i know what dry fruits you used in your cake and if I soak them in rum how many hours do i leave them soaking.

[orthon360]

Great I like paneton fruitcake

[preetybindra]

[benishah]

can u make eggless ???? let me know, what to add and what not too...

[LipRouge]

Hahaha... I like when he says "half a teaspoon of baking powder" and he holds up this huuuuge heaping teaspoon and drops it in.

[bin1972cp]

pls tell us the measurement as you said it should be precise.

[EyeCandySpecial]

@bin1972cp use a basic pound cake recipe...equal amt of sugar and butter

[feddcq]

3:30 was so hilarious "i just want a little bit of flavor you know" i said to myslef "a little acoholic"

[edznmheltz]

at least,he can speak english!not perfect bcoz he is not american,how about you?where you came from?think who you are...the american did not mind for the others english,at least they can speak english no problem!

[lavenderblossom]

I agree. I'm American, and I meet people here who claim to speak "English" but their Grammar is HORRIBLE. So is their spelling. Americans claim they're better than everyone, but they're not most of the time. They're arrogant and rude, and most of the time, not very smart. As an American, I'm saying this.

They don't speak English: They speak American.

[zIITaLeNTzIIz]

@lavenderblossom American isn't a language!

[sweetangel1120]
