Have you ever prepared a steamed cake, or have you eaten a cake that was prepared by steaming? Please describe it shortly(2 Marks)

Yes, I have prepared steam cake before. I made a steam cake on the first day of this week but I could not share it on this platform because I did not take photographs at that time. Since I prepared the steam cake, I tested it. The test was really great. I did not find much difference between the baked cake and the steam cake. Steamed cake can be prepared in a relatively short time and it is also very delicious to eat.

Make the "Steamed Cake" or any similar dish that are shared in the course, or make them as per your style, with a detailed step-by-step procedure along with images. (5 Marks)

Used Ingredients

Ingredients	Amount
Purpose flour	1 cup
Corn flour	1 tsp
Sugar	1/2 cup
Eggs	2
Lemon juice	1 tsp
Milk	1/2 cup
Cooking soda	1/3 tsp
Oil	1/3 cup
Chololate	As you want
Dry fruits	As you want
Salt	to taste

Making Process

Step- I

^{Crack Egg and make a mixture with sugar and oil}

First I cracked two eggs. Here I used two room temperature eggs. If you have stored eggs in the refrigerator, then make sure to take them out of the refrigerator at least 30 minutes before preparing this one so that they are at room temperature. Then I added the above mentioned amount of sugar and beat them well. I beat it clockwise. After all the sugar grains melted, I poured oil here.

Step-II

^{Add Flour, baking soda, salt and cornflour}

At this stage, I sifted the flour into the mixture and mixed it in well. I also added a small amount of baking soda, salt and cornflour.

Step-III

^{Add lemon extract and make batter}

Then I added lemon juice. I didn't have vanilla essence so I used lemon juice as a substitute. We know vanilla essence is used to remove the flavor of eggs which gives the same result even if you use lemon juice so I added lemon juice as a substitute. Then I added the dry fruits here. I used raisins, dates, cashews and pumpkin seeds. Then I mixed it again.

Step-IV

^{Add Milk}

I used liquid milk in this step. After adding this, the batter became smoother. After adding the milk, I let it rest for 10 minutes.

Step-V

^{Oil brush the mold}

Then I took a steel bowl and brushed it with oil. After brushing with oil, I sprinkled cornflowers on it.

Step-VI

^{Transfer the batter}

In this step, I transfer the batter in that bowl.

Step-VII

^{Put the cake for steaming}

Then I pour water in a pot and let it boil. When the water starts boiling I put the cake mold on it for steaming. Then cover it.

Step-VIII

^{Steaming the cake}

After steaming for about 25 minutes, I open the lid, checked it fully cooked or not with a thin stick. Then I remove the bowl from there and transfer it onto another plate.

Step-IX

^{Add chocolate decoration}

Finally, I spread the liquid dairy milk. I garnish with it and cut the cake.
