Sultana Samolina

I normally used King Brand Samolina flour. But now cannot find it anywhere. Possible the company have stop producing it. 

Sigh !...... I love sugee or samolina cake and lots of my friends also love it. Christmas and Chinese New Year just round the corner. It would not be the same without it.

This bake I try out Alaggapas brand and ...... am not to happy with it. Hope can find the King Brand before these two festival.

Sultana Samolina

The ingredients I used 

(A)

180 gms brown sugar cos my family doesn't like too sweet

375 gm Butter

(B)

55 gms cake flour plus 1 tsp baking powder

250 gms sugee or samolina flour

(C)

15 nos  eggs yolk grade A

(D)

250 gms mixed  dry fruits or just raisins

Optional for non muslim members

Soak the dry fixed fruits in a 300ml brandy/rum/whisky for about at least 2 weeks or till the dry fruits all puff up.

Methods is put the ingredients

Whipped (A) till light and fluffy

Add (B) then cling it up and let it rest for at least 5 hours

Whisk(C) and then combine mix with the (A&B) mixture till all is evenly mix

Lastly add in (D)

Pour mixture to a cake tin 8" by  3". I line my pyrex  pan. My advise is best use normal cake tin as not to have the side and bottom if this cake "crispy look"

Bake in 175 degree celcius for 50 minites or till cake tester come out clean. Oven temperature depend on individual setting.

Happy baking......😀
