Equipment

  • Hand Mixer

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cup Semolina fine
  • 1 cup Yogurt thick, full fat
  • 1.5 cup Milk full fat
  • 1/4 cup Ghee thick
  • 1.5 cup Sugar
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp Cardamom powder freshly grind

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, add fine semolina and yogurt. Use a hand mixer to beat the mixture with the beater attachments on low for 30 seconds. You can use a regular whisk or spatula as well.
  • Add some milk little at a time and slowly mix together to form a batter.
  • Transfer some ghee, sugar, cardamom powder, and beat the batter on a low speed for about 4-5 minutes.
  • Add some salt and beat the batter for 2 more minutes until it turns light and airy.
  • Cover the bowl with a plastic wrap or plate. Set the mixture aside for about 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 350℉/180℃
  • Grease the 9-10 inch bundt pan with some ghee or oil. Thinly dust 1 tbsp of flour on the pan and remove the excess flour.
  • After resting the batter, add some baking soda and mix it well with a spatula. Do not overmix the soda or the cake will turn hard.
  • Carefully pour the batter into the pan and bake for 45 minutes, or until the cake comes out clean when a toothpick is inserted in the middle.
  • Transfer the baking tray onto a cooling rack for about 15 minutes.
  • Slightly loosen the ends of a cake with a plastic butter knife. Place a plate over the pan and turn it upside down. The cake should come out easily.
  • Cut the cake into even pieces and serve.

Notes

  • For making the cake rich in taste, do not skip adding full fat milk, full fat yogurt, and ghee in the recipe. 
  • Bake the cake for 45-50 minutes, depending on your oven. Make sure to check the cake after 42-45 minutes by inserting a toothpick in the center and It should come out clean. 
  • Do not over bake the cake or it will turn very dark and turn a little bitter in taste.  
  • Let the cake cool down completely before slicing so it will not fall apart while cutting.
