Simply Delicious Eggless Semolina cake

It was a boring weekend, and I wanted to created something different. Surfing through the facebook, I came across my cousin's wall where she made this cake. It was a unique using semolina as the base instead of the common flour, so I thought I try it.

Recipe:
1.5 cups semolina,
1 cup milk,
1 cup plain natural yogurt,
1/2 cup butter,
1.5 cups sugar,
1 tspn baking soda,
1 tspn vanilla essence

3 to 4 tblspns of sliced almonds for sprinkling on top (optional),
a pinch of salt
Method:1. Mix the sugar and yogurt thoroughly so that the sugar completely dissolves,
2. Then add all the other ingredients to the yogurt. Now let this batter stand for an hour. Keep it covered . This enables the semolina to soften completely before baking.
3. Meanwhile pre-heat the oven to 200deg C and grease and line a baking tray with baking paper.
4. After one hour pour the batter into the prepared tray and sprinkle the sliced almonds all over the top. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until it is golden in colour and a cocktail stick inserted comes out clean . Wait for it to cool before slicing it. If it does not easily come off the tray do not force it out but slice it in the tray itself and remove the slices carefully with a broad knife or a fish slice.

And the results as below. A yummy cake, suitable for vegetarians. Definitely a treat for a new palate. Well, my brother's engagement will held soon, and we are definitely going to put this into the menu, since this has to be a vegetarian spread!
