Orange Semolina Cake
MAKES 9 SQUARES
INGREDIENTS
FOR THE CAKE
- 200g fine semolina
- 25g desiccated coconut
- 40g plain flour
- 175g caster sugar
- 80ml olive oil, plus extra for greasing
- 125g Greek yoghurt
- 190ml whole milk
- 2 tsps orange blossom water
- 2 tsps baking powder
- ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
FOR THE SYRUP
- Juice of 1 lime
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 50g caster sugar
- 70ml water
- 1 large orange
METHOD
1 Lightly grease and line a 20cm square tin, ideally loose-bottomed if you have one.
2 Put all dry cake ingredients in a bowl: semolina, coconut, flour and sugar. Mix well.
3 Pour the oil, yoghurt, milk and orange blossom water into the dry ingredients and mix till you have an even cake batter. Leave covered for about 40 minutes to allow the semolina and coconut to soak up that liquid.
4 Preheat oven to 190C/fan, 170C/gas mark 5.
5 Uncover bowl. Add baking powder and bicarb; mix in well. Spoon mixture into prepared cake tin. Spread into a thin, even layer. Bake for 35 minutes, till a skewer comes out clean.
