"Emmm... Farid nak makan apa?"

"Apa pun boleh, tapi Mama yang masak, ok?"

"OK laaaahh..."

Dalca Daging Tulang Rusuk

Peeped into the fridge. "EEmmm... bahan-bahan ada. Kalau buat chocolate cake, ok gak ni", I thought to myself. So dengan segala semangat rajinnya, I pun buat la chocolate cake.

eeiikk!! awat cake tak menjadik ni??!! (Buang.. buang..!).

Memang mencabar kesabaranlah!

I decided to bake another one. And ...




Faiz sorang jer dah 'hilangkan' 1/4 dari cake ni



Baked the cake using Healsio Steam Oven this time.

Ingredients:
170 gm butter
390 gm castor sugar
3 eggs

Mixed:
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 tsp chocolate emulco or chocolate paste
340 gm water (340 ml)

Sift together:
225 gm plain flour
65 gm cocoa powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp soda bicarbonate
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp Nescafe

Cara:
1. Using Healsio Steam Oven.

2. Prepare and grease 10 inci round or 9 inci square cake tin.

2. Cream butter and sugar.

3. Add eggs, one by one.

4. Fold in 1/3 of sifted flour, alternate with 1/2 of liquid till you finish with flour.

5. Pour into cake tin. I started baking using Convection Setting, with Preheat at 150C for 40 mins.

At the end of baking time, when checked, the toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake was still slightly 'wet'.

So, I continued baking, this time changing to Supersteam Setting, Without Preheat at 140C for 10 mins. The reason I used Supersteam was because the top of the cake was already very brown, I didn't want it to be burnt, crispy and dry whilst the centre was not fully cooked.


Results:

Cake was cooked perfectly, the top soft and spongy to the touch.
Texture of cake - Moist.
