Cake Woh Bhi Tomato Ka, Really?

Ingredients:

• 2 over ripe tomatoes
• 4 eggs
• 2 cups sugar
• ¼ cup orange juice
• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 4 cups flour
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• 1.5 teaspoon salt
• 2.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 2.5 teaspoons ground nutmeg
• 1.5 teaspoon ground ginger

Method:

• Preheat oven to 170 degrees and grease a baking pan .
• Wash the tomatoes and cut the stem spot off each of them,  then slice into fourths and place in a food processor. Puree until liquid and even in consistency; little flecks of colored skin are welcome.
• In a large bowl, beat the eggs, sugar; until smooth and even in color. Beat in the oil until incorporated, add the orange juice and mix.
• Sift all remaining dry ingredients over the egg mixture and begin to fold in the dry ingredients, gradually adding the measured tomato puree.
• Scrape sides and bottom of bowl with spatula; mix until batter is even.Pour into prepared pan, smoothing the surface with spatula. Bake for 25-30 minutes (depending on your microwave power), until center tests clean with a toothpick and no longer jiggles.
• Let it cool completely in pan, then transfer to a large plate or cutting board

While a dusting of spiced powdered sugar or decadent  cream cheese frosting are equally delicious, I used fresh cream with a drop of vanilla essence and 2 spoon of confectioner’s sugar, lightly whipped with spoon and spread on top of cake.
