Fragrant Orange Cake My cake recipe for orange lovers: I am dedicating this recipe to Rupali, my daughter’s colleague in Delhi who loved it! 4 eggs 2 cups plain flour 1½ cups sugar ½ cup oil ½ cup fresh orange juice 4 tsp baking powder OR 1tsp cream of tarter+1/2tsp soda-bi carbonate 1 tsp vanilla 1/2 tsp salt 1/3 candied orange peel (chopped) OR zest of 1 orange.(can add more according to ur taste) Orange section for decoration (optional) 1 oven proof tubular glass dish or any tube pan Pre heat oven to 340 F. Grease and flour the glass dish or pan. Rub the orange peel with 2-3 tbsp of flour and keep it, otherwise the peel will settle down at the bottom of the batter. Beat the sugar and eggs together in a medium sized bowl and gradually add the oil. Then add the flour, baking powder or cream of tartar and soda, salt and orange juice and stir till smooth. Add the vanilla essence and candied orange peel or zest, mix well. Pour batter into the tube pan or glass dish and bake in the pre heated oven for approximately 40 minutes. Check by piercing it with a toothpick, it should come out clean. Let the cake cook in the pan for 10 minutes and then remove onto a rack or plate. Decorate with the skinned orange sections.
