Instructions
- In a large bowl whisk together yogurt and baking soda till the yogurt looks frothy
- Add cooking oil, sugar, vanilla extract, salt, and whisk
- Place a strainer over the bowl and to that add all purpose flour and baking powder. Sift this in. We are sifting this so that the cake turns out airy and there are no clumps
- Combine the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using the cut and fold method.
- Once the dry ingredients are incorporated, give it a quick brief whisk to get a nice and smooth batter
- I am using a 12 inch pan for this recipe
- Line it with a parchment paper
- Spread the batter evenly on the parchment paper
- Place a lid on and turn on the heat on low
- Bake till you see small bubbles on the surface of the cake
- Check if the batter feels dry on the surface and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake should come out clean
- Turn off the heat and let the cake cool down
- Heat up whole milk in a pot along with cardamoms (cracked) and a pinch of kesar (saffron)
- Boil the milk while scraping the bottom and the edges of the pan
- Add 1/4 cup of granulated sugar (or to taste)
- Boil till the milk reaches half its original volume
- Take out half of the milk in a boil and set it aside
- Boil the remaining milk till it reaches a thick paste like consistency. Be sure to scrape the bottom of the pit and lower the heat so the rabri doesn’t burn
- Take out the rabri in a bowl and set it aside
- Using a cookie cutter or a glass cut out circular pieces from the cake
- Soak the cake with 3-4 tbsp. of the thin rabri
- Top with the thick rabri
- Garnish with slivered almonds, pistachios and kesar
