Mango and Lime Cake
Another one from a photocopy of something given to me by my Oz mum-in-law.
2 large or 3 small mangoes
175g unsalted butter
175g caster sugar
3 eggs
125 g self-raising flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
45g ground almonds
Finely grated rind of 2 limes
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice
Syrup
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
1/4 cup caster sugar
Slice peeled mango into strips and arrange on base of a greased 22cm
springform tin to cover completely. Beat the butter and sugar until
creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beting well after each addition. Sift
the flour with baking powder and fold into butter mixture alternately
with ground almonds, lime rind and juice. Pour batter over mangoes and
bake at 180C for 50 minutes. Reduce temperature to 150C and bake for 30
minutes longer, or until cooked when tested with a skewer. Leave in the
tin for 5 to 10 minutes before inverting on a serving platter.
Meanwhile, for syrup, combine lime juice, sugar and 2 tablespoons
water in a saucepan and stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves.
Bring to a boil and cook, without stirring, for 3 to 4 minutes, or
until syrup thickens slightly. Brush syrup over top of cake to glaze.
Serve warm or cold.
