Please check out the Butter Cake made by Divya based on the above recipe. Also please dont forget to check out her other bakes, she has an amazing collection of baked goodies.
Notes: The batter might look curdled, but its ok, go ahead and bake it. If you want a caramel flavor, substitute 1 1/3 cups (275 gm) firmly packed brown sugar for the caster sugar.
Baking Alternative: If you dont have an oven/MW and still want to bake the cake, it’s possible :). You can bake this in a pressure cooker. Suchitra, one of the dear readers of this space, tried baking it in a pressure cooker and it came out well. She was kind enough to share the method here. Please do check her comment in the comments section for the details. Thanks again Suchitra :)
