Having accidentally made Queen of Puddings instead of this clementine cake a few weeks ago, i thought i'd make this now for Marni's 5 week birthday. Actually, i made the chocolate pudding for marni's 5 week birthday, but it was so awful, i made this as well! This was more like it - if Marni could eat as well as suck, she would have loved it.
- Boil 4-5 whole clementines in a pan for 2 hours, then drain, cut each in half and remove the pips.
- Pulp everything in a processor.
- Beat 6 eggs and add 225g sugar, 250g ground almonds, and 1 teaspoon baking powder.
- Mix well and add the pulped clementines.
- Pour the mixture into a buttered/lined 20cm tin and cook for 1 hour at 190C.
- You may need to cover the top after 40 mins to stop it burning.
Nigella calls it the easiest cake she knows, but you wouldn't know it to taste it - delicious. By the way, that's 50 recipes down - a pretty good start if i say so myself - deserves a glass of champagne!
