Christmas is around the corner and this is the best time to prepare a traditional Christmas fruit cake. At Hungry Tummy, the focus is on the use of homely cooking utensils and ingredients. Hence, I have desisted from using fancy moulds and cake/microwave ovens and used the humble pressure cooker and an aluminium bowl for baking. The cake comes out soft, fluffy and firm- flavoured with dry fruits. The balanced sweetness of the dough compliments the flavours of the dry fruits which creates the perfect Christmas cake. I would encourage everyone to make this simple, yummy cake at home. Please comment on your experience and be sure to share it with your friends!
