FAQS
Can I use regular sugar instead of powdered sugar?
Yes, but powdered sugar dissolves more easily and gives a smoother texture to the batter.
What can I use instead of curd?
You can use yogurt as a substitute for curd in this recipe.
Can I bake this cake in a regular oven?
Yes, you can bake it in a preheated oven at 180°C for 30-35 minutes.
How do I know if the cake is done?
Insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.
Can I skip the aluminum foil while baking?
The aluminum foil helps retain moisture, but you can skip it if you prefer a slightly crustier top.
