Method Of Preparation

Chop all the dry fruits into small pieces
In a pot add chopped dried fruits then pour orange juice and honey into it and mix well. Keep it aside for for 10 minutes
After 10 minutes, Cook it on low flame until all the water contents are absorbed by dry fruits. It should become dry completely so that the dry fruits absorbs the orange juice completely. (This step eliminates the step of soaking dry fruits in advance)
Put off the flame and transfer it into a plate. Allow it to cool down completely
Once it’s cooled down, add 3 tbsp all purpose flour to the cooled dry fruits and mix well. this step helps the dry fruits not to sink to the bottom of the cake.
For preparing caramel, add 1/2 cup of sugar and 3 tbsp water in a heavy bottomed pan and mix well, heat it on medium flame
With in few minutes it will change into liquid then it will begin to change colour,when the colour becomes dark brown pour 1/4 cup of hot water. Stir it well and cook until the sugar crystals dissolves completely. Transfer it into a bowl and allow to cool.When the caramel cools down it will harden which is common
In a bowl add eggs and beat it well until it becomes fluffy. Then add powdered sugar into it and beat well until sugar dissolves completely.
Add vanilla essence and oil into it and mix well
Then add the prepared caramel into it and mix well
Add orange peel into it and mix
In a sieve add all purpose flour, spice powders, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix well and sift it. Add this flour mix to the above prepared mix
Fold very gently with a spatula
Add the dry fruits mix into it and gently fold. Cake batter is now ready
Pour the batter into the greased baking pan and level the top. Tap it for removing air bubbles
Place a rack inside a pan. Heat up the pan with a lid for 5-7 min in medium flame
After 5 minutes, open the lid and place the cake pan on the rack
Close it with a lid and cook it in low flame for 40-45 minutes
After 45 minutes, open the lid and check the cake is cooked well or not by inserting a toothpick in the middle of the cake. If it came out clean, then the cake will be ready. If not, then cook for few more minutes until cake is cooked well
Carefully take out the cake pan and let it cool down completely
Once it’s cooled down completely, carefully remove the cake from the cake pan.
Enjoy this yummy soft and moist cake
