FAQs

Why do I need to beat the butter and sugar for so long?

You have to do so to incorporate enough air in the mixture otherwise the cake will not rise properly

What is mawa?

Mawa is a very commonly used ingredient in Indian households, specially to make Indian sweets. It is basically cooked milk solids.

What vinegar can I use?

You can use regular synthetic vinegar, apple cider vinegar or freshly squeezed lemon juice

Baking time for cake?

Baking time varies depending on the colour of the pan you use and also your oven temperature. For my oven the cake takes anywhere between 30-35 minutes. You will need to see when the cake looks risen and lightly golden on top approx around 30 minutes, check with a skewer and if it comes out clean, the cake is ready.

Can I also add cardamom?

Yes you can add around 1/4 tsp ground cardamom for extra flavour.

  • Please read the notes (FAQ) above the recipe to make sure your cake turns out perfectly.
  • Pour into prepped mould, tap gently on the counter to smoothen batter & run a knife through the centre as shown in the video for that classic pound cake look.
