Semolina | Sooji cake Recipe | Cardamom Flavored Semolina Cake Recipe

August 23, 2012 by Premalatha Aravindhan 61 Comments

Soji Cake

Tasted this traditional sooji cake first time when one of our family friend gave this cake for Christmas.Got the recipe from her and tried out immediately.I have to say, this is one of my fav cake that i have baked.I totally love the texture of the cake because the crispy part of the cake is really too good.



Ingredients:

1 cup Rava / Sooji / Semolina
1/2 cup Maida / Plain Flour
1 cup fresh grated / desiccated coconut
1 and 1/2 cup  Sugar
125g Butter
1/2 tsp Cardamom Powder
1 tsp Baking Powder
4 Eggs

Method:

Soji Cake

  • If you are using fresh grated coconut dry roast it first.
  • Dry roast the rava / semolina also.Keep aside.

Soji Cake

  • Add butter and sugar in a mixing bowl and beat them,till it become light and creamy.

Soji Cake

  • Add eggs and beat them them well,till sugar dissolves.

Soji Cake

  • Add the shifted baking powder and plain flour,cardamom powder,dry roasted coconut and semolina / rava,mix well.
  • Keep the batter in the same bowl for about 3-4 hours without disturbing,it helps the cake to give fine texture.

Soji Cake

  • After 3-4 hours.Grease the 8” inch baking tin and transfer the batter into it.Bake it for about 20 to 30 minutes at 170 degree Celsius.
  • Once done cool it and then slice it.

Soji Cake

The texture of this cake is like perfectly moist at the centre and crispy at the top.Don’t miss to taste the crispy partSmile with tongue out.

The roasted coconut and cardamom gives nice flavours to the cake.Do try this and enjoy!!!

    Tried this cake yesterday and I am like “WOWWWWWWWWWWWWW”.. I should admit that I didnt expect that this cake would taste THIS good since I am not a lover of Semolina, Cardamom n even coconut. This cake makes my husband say “yumm” for every bite and my kiddo kept asking me for one more piece till mid night..The cardamom made it smell heavenly and the coconut gave a nice crunch..Awesome recipe Prema. Thank you so much for the nice recipe.
