Hot Cake

This is a Nigella Lawson recipe and is simply delicious, though it sounds weird to make!

150g plain flour
100g light muscovado sugar
1 tsp ground ginger
1 tsp ground mixed spice
1 tsp baking powder
125ml milk
60 ml unflavoured oil

Pre heat the oven to 220

Mix all the above ingredients together and pour into a lightly buttered ovenproof dish.

Sprinkle over the top another 100 g light muscovado sugar, 1 tsp ground ginger and 1 tsp mixed spice. Dot 6 tsp butter over the top then gently pour on top 1/2 l boiling water. Put into the oven and cook for 30 minutes. When done remove and leave to stand for 1 minutes to allow the mixture to settle. Serve with whipped cream.
