Ingredients
3 eggs
All purpose flour (maida)
Oil (I have used Sunflower oil)
Sugar
1 tsp baking powder
Method
- Crack open 3 eggs in a bowl.
- Look at the quantity of the liquid in the bowl. If it fills 3/4th of the bowl, then all other ingredients such as sugar, all purpose flour and oil should be taken of the same quantity.
- Now add the eggs to a mixer jar.
- To the same bowl, add sugar and fill such that it occupies the same volume.
- In the same way, measure all purpose flour and oil as well and add all the 3 to the mixer jar containing the eggs.
- All these 4 ingredients should be of the same quantity.
- Add a tsp of baking powder and grind the ingredients to a fine paste. (Do not add water)
- Now grease an aluminum cake pan with oil and pour the cake batter into it.
- Heat a thick bottomed pan (which is large enough to accommodate the aluminium cake pan) and place a ring over it.
- Close with a lid and heat for about 7 minutes so that the pan gets preheated.
- Now place the cake pan over the ring and again close with the lid.
- Place a weight over it and reduce the flame to medium.
- Cook for about 30 to 40 minutes or till you get a nice aroma of sponge cake.
- To check if the cake is cooked, carefully open the lid and insert a toothpick through the cake.
- If it comes out clean, your cake is cooked.
- Wait till the cake has come to room temperature and invert the cake over a plate.
- Cut it into pieces or decorate with frostings of your choice.
- Serve with tea and Enjoy!
