DURIAN CAKE

Durian Cake image

This recipe came from My Favourite Recipes by Ellice Handy. There are a few flavours of Durian meat - sweet, very sweet, bitter (just not that sweet). Choose the yellow flesh and press on the flesh to check that the flesh is thick (shows that seed is smallish) or you might end up with big seeds with a thin layer of durian meat. Do not choose fresh durian meat that is exuding water. I made this once with 2.5 times the amount of durian meat. It turned out kinda heavy but it was finished in two days. One of those who tasted it said there wasn't enought durian meat. Hah!

Time 1h20m

Yield 1 cake

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

170 g self raising flour (I normally sift mine for a fluffier cake)
170 g butter
140 g sugar
115 g mashed durian
4 egg yolks
4 egg whites (beaten)

Steps:

Preheat oven to 180C or 350°F.
Cream butter and sugar until fluffy.
Add in the egg yolks one at a time.
Beat well before adding the next yolk.
Add durian meat and beat well.
Next, add in the beaten egg whites.
Last but not least, add in the flour.
Put in a 8 x 8 greased pan and bake for an 1 hour.
Warning: Durian meat does smell a tad strong so it might be a good idea to warn your family members when you are about to try this cake.

Tips:

Use fresh durian: The fresher the durian, the better the cake will taste. If you can't find fresh durian, you can use frozen durian puree, but make sure to thaw it completely before using it.
Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the cake tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
Bake the cake at a moderate temperature: A moderate temperature will help the cake to rise evenly and prevent it from overcooking.
Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
Use a cream cheese frosting: A cream cheese frosting is a classic pairing for durian cake. It's rich and creamy, and it perfectly complements the sweet and pungent flavor of the durian.

Conclusion:

Durian cake is a delicious and unique dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. Whether you're a fan of durian or not, you're sure to enjoy this delicious cake.
