I tried to bake a cake in a Pressure cooker

-

Since I don't have an Oven or a Microwave, baking is not so easy for me. I saw this video on YouTube sometime back where this lady bakes a cake in a Pressure cooker. I thought of giving it a try since it was Easter and I wanted to bake.  

As per the YouTube video, she takes All purpose flour, Oil and Milk to create a batter. Once the batter is made, she puts it in the pressure cooker and bakes it on a low flame for 35 mins. (to be precise) Once it's baked, she pours some vanilla on the cake and some crushed chocolate which makes it a Vanilla Chocolate cake.

I'm certainly unfortunate because I didn't have the All-purpose flour, neither did I have any Chocolate or Vanilla and due to lock-down it's very difficult to buy any essentials as most of the grocery shops are running out of stock. So instead of All purpose flour, I took Wheat flour to make the batter. As I didn't have Vanilla or Chocolate, I knew my cake wouldn't be interesting hence I added some Kesari Syrup to the batter. 

Now that my batter was ready, I sprinkled some flour in the cooker ( so it doesn't stick to the surface ) and poured my batter into the pressure cooker and kept it on a low flame for 35 mins.

Post 35 mins, I got a surprise!

My cake was baked. It wasn't burnt. But since I forgot to rub some oil in the pressure cooker before adding the batter, my cake was stuck to the surface. I tried my best to transfer it on a plate but I failed. My cake was broken into pieces. 

To be honest, I did not expect my cake to be perfect because this was the very first time I tried to bake a cake in a pressure cooker. The cake tasted delicious. At the same time, I was disappointed because my cake didn't look like a cake and I knew exactly why. The reason was firstly I used Wheat flour and secondly, I didn't use Baking powder hence, my cake wasn't spongy.

The last and the most important question I had was, How do I serve my cake? 

I took those pieces of my cake, moulded them into small doughs and by using a cup, I cut them into circles. This moreover looked like a Pancake but I was satisfied. 

After a long struggle, my cake was ready to be served. 




Much Love❤️

What's my secret to beautiful flawless skin?

Beautiful flawless skin is every girl’s mojo and for a fact, this is a majorly searched question on Google. Honestly, this had been my question as well for many years until I discovered some magical remedies that changed my life forever. Skincare was never in my routine for a very long time until I figured out that my skin was no longer mine. So like every other person, I experimented with hell lot of products to fix my issues. The most important thing about skincare is to understand your skin type and to choose a product based on that. I didn’t realize this initially and hence, most products didn’t work for me. I have oily-combination skin. I never really had any pimple related problems which I got from my mom, Thanks to her. But I had a major issue of skin tanning. By this I mean, my skin can tan within just 5 mins of being exposed to the sun. Due to which my skin always looked dull. The other major problem I had was discolouration and pigmentation. Before I begin, l...

My hair transformation

Hello lovelies and welcome back to my blog. I’ve been willing to share my hair journey for a very long period of time and here I am today talking about how I transformed my extremely damaged hair to not so damaged hair. As far as I remember, I always had dry and frizzy hair because I never really took care of it. For many years, I used the normal body soap to wash my hair and those days I used to wash my hair every single day. When I grew up, probably when I was in 8 th Grade, I realized that my hair was extremely damaged. Believe me, my hair kind of felt like a broom. It was hard, rough and it started curling up naturally. 2014 - When my hair was extremely damaged I honestly didn’t know what to do, so I went on YouTube to find out a solution. I came across many tips to get rid of the damaged hair. Tip number 1. Do not use body soap to wash your hair as it’s very harsh for your hair. Tip number 2 – Do not wash your hair every day. The natural oil that your scalp ...

Love them because they Love you

What comes to your mind when you see an animal? Are they some kind of material for your content or toys to experiment with or stressbusters while in stress? If yes, then something is wrong with you.   The world is at such a bad stage but despite being a better human, I see that humans are enjoying slaying animals without a purpose. Have you ever thought how painful it is for them? They can't speak, They can't express their pain, They can't express their sorrow. Their life is a constant struggle between life and death. They don't crave for luxuries like us, they simply crave for food, for love, and some care. And as humans, it's our responsibility to treat them with love and respect but instead, we find happiness in slaughtering them and abusing them. Please don't play with their lives.  Please don't be so brutal to them. It's okay if you can't treat them well, but at least don't treat them so horrib...
