BM #83 Week 1 Day 1 - 

This week I have taken up a unique theme of making one dish using three different appliances. I have decided to bake an eggless semolina cake using three appliances I own. 

For today, I used an Farberware brand Air fryer as the appliance.

I am treating this series to be an experiment as I have never made a comparative analysis before. I will give my family's verdict on Day 3. So keep tuned.

My observations for the cake made in air fryer - 
-The taste of the cake was good in all of the appliances. Only the shape and texture were slightly different.
-The texture of the cake was crumbly.
-The top of the cake browned faster and the cake wasn't cooked through at the end of 12 minutes. So my first batch had to be discarded. I then reduced the temperature to 325°F and baked for 12 minutes and let it stay there for another 10 minutes after powering it down.


Ingredients - 

Semolina / Bombay Rava / Sooji 1 cup
Milk 1/2 Cup 
Sugar 2 Tbsp
Yogurt 1/2 cup
Vegetable Oil 3 Tbsp
Vanilla Essence 1/8 tsp
Almonds chopped 2 Tbsp + more for topping
Baking Soda 1/4 tsp
Baking Powder 1/2 tsp


Method Of Preparation -


In a mixing bowl, add Sooji, milk, yogurt, vegetable oil and vanilla essence. Mix well and set aside for 15 minutes.

Add in baking soda, baking powder and the chopped almonds. Gently mix until well combined.

I used a disposable foil mini loaf pan (5 inch). I lined it with a parchment paper.

Pour about a 3/4 cup of batter, place it in the air fryer. Set the temperature to 325 °F.

Bake it for about 12 minutes. Remove and check for doneness by inserting a tester. Power down the air fryer and let the cake remain in the basket for another 10 minutes.

After the cake is just warm, run a knife along the edges and gently remove the cake from the foil pan.

Allow it to cool down completely before slicing.
