Trifle Pudding

THis is one of my favourite deserts from my childhood. I have grown having this and invokes childhood memories. The trifle pudding has 5 parts
  1. Sponge Cake
  2. Jello
  3. Custard



































Sponge Cake Eggless
Ingredients
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour / maida about 190 grams (organic flour)
  • ¾ cup sugar (organic sugar)
  • 1 ¼ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ cup oil (I used virgin coconut oil)
  • 1 cup curd / yogurt (do not use sour curd)
  • 2 to 3 tbsps milk
  • ¾ to 1 tbsp vanilla extract


Instructions
  • Grease a 7 or 8 inch cake tray. Line a parchment paper or dust with flour.
  • Preheat the oven to 170 C for at least 15 mins.
  • To a large mixing bowl, add fresh curd along with sugar and vanilla extract.
  • Mix all of these until sugar has dissolved completely. Make sure there are no lumps of curd.
  • Pour oil and mix well until combined.
  • Add in the baking powder and soda.
  • How to make eggless sponge cake
  • Begin to gently whisk it until the soda reacts with curd. Within mins you will see the mixture turning thick and frothy.
  • Place a sieve over the bowl. Add ½ to ¾ cup of flour to the sieve.
  • Sieve it well. Mix gently until just combined.
  • Place the sieve back on the bowl. Add the rest of the flour in 1 to 2 parts.
  • Sieve well.
  • Gently mix until there are no streaks of flour seen.
  • The batter will be slightly thick. Add 2 to 3 tbsps. of milk and mix in.
  • The batter at this stage is of the ribbon consistency.
  • Pour this to the cake tray. Brush lightly with milk on top to get a beautiful golden color.
  • Gently knock the pan to the counter a few times.
  • Bake for 25 to 30 mins. Do adjust the time depending on your oven and the size of your pan. It took exactly 30 mins for me in a 7 inch square pan.
  • When the cake is done, a tester inserted comes out clean.
  • Cool the cake for 10 to 15 mins.
  • Invert it over a wire rack gently. Cool completely before Slicing or frosting.
Make the Jello as per the instruction on the box. I used Weikfield Jello as it has no gelatin and is vegetarian. It should fully set properly in a square tray.

Custard
Ingredients
  • 3 cups Milk
  • 1.5 TBSP Custard Powder preferably Vanilla Falvour
  • 2 TBSP sugar
Directions
  • take the Custard Powder and mix it completely with 1/2 cup milk
  • Boil the the remaining milk
  • Once it has Boiled, add the mixture of custard powder and milk. Bring it also to boil and add sugar. 
  • Stir continuously so that no lumps are formed. After it boils lower the heat and let it simmer for 5 minutes
  • Remove from heat and let it cool down.
