I love love good food magazine, they have so many delicious recipes in them and beautiful pictures which really tempt me a lot to try those recipes..I have already made few recipes from that magazine, one of that is my raw banana podi fry..
When i was referring the magazine few weeks back, i came across this cake recipe. The picture tempted me a lot to try, so tried it immediately and loved it instantly.
This cake is a little denser and the lemon taste just came through it. Specially the citrus lemon syrup speaks for itself. Loved it to the core, i changed the recipe as per the available ingredients and it turned out super good..I hope you will try this and let me know how it turned out..
