[Music]
the Bob Marley here knife respect going
out to fool tool me and Bob we’re gonna
be making Jamaican ginger cake your nan
loves it
little kids love it everybody loves it
it’s fantastic you can have as a butter
ice cream or just on its own has a
little cake beautiful it is such a great
little dessert and it’s all the way from
the Caribbean to rainy ol England
so let’s brighten up our date shall we
so we’ve got some golden syrup now 125
grams is what you need beautiful now
we’re gonna put it all in first then I’m
gonna put on a heat okay so it’s
probably free of these big old spoons I
mean it is very very naughty which is
not a bad thing because it’s a dessert
and you deserve it
treacle this stuff is lethal look at
that Wow
I wouldn’t lick the spoon because you
probably pass out previously I’d be a
rum 60 mils of dark rum now we’ve got
some sugar dark brown sugar you can use
a bit of Demerara if you like so pop
that in it just makes it really cool a
caramel we sort of flavor up going on
rather than just using normal caster
sugar okay 50 mils of water in there
unsalted butter 125 grams
get that in there I’m just gonna turn
that on now now while that’s melting
you’ve got enough time to chop up your
stemmed ginger it’s in a lovely syrup so
it’s really sweet so we’re doing a
dessert so it really doesn’t work you
can buy it in a supermarket like this
already roughly chop it coz you want
those little bits of ginger in there you
don’t listen to disappear completely in
with the old stem ginger now that’s
taken away nicely you don’t want to boil
it we only want this to tick away until
the butter has melted and all the
ingredients have come together a little
taste
marvellous on this is our cake or our
bread needs to rise to the occasion
so we need a bit of quiet cobbler soda
three-quarters of a teaspoon there I’ll
just pour that in there now all right
lovely flower
it’s sift out 250 grams of
lovely playing flower now we’re gonna
add our spices we’ve got a teaspoon of
ginger in there half a teaspoon of
allspice
that is the actual spice of Jamaica I’ve
got half a teaspoon of nutmeg and one
1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon
all right so in you go obviously try and
distribute it round mix it together if
you can find a smaller spoon do so one
dude big one on top beautiful now I’m
just gonna crack two eggs and whisk them
up okay because the yolks are gonna add
that nice richness and the whites gonna
help it rise up give it a whiskey
whiskey okay we’re gonna add this lovely
naughty mixture in some our eggs okay
you gotta do a little bit of time
because you don’t want to scramble the
eggs you know I’m saying once and a
little bits gone in there sort of brings
the temperature down I’m just gonna
whisk up a little bit make sure it all
comes together now we mix this into our
flour make sure you really do give it a
good old whisk you don’t any lumps in
there you can see bubbles move in there
that’s the bicarb you see it working
delicious that is it all we have to do
now is bake it so I’ve got this nice
little loaf tin over here a little bit
of butter inside and then grease proof
paper that’s it now make sure your oven
is preheated to a hundred and seventy
let’s introduce this into the tin now
there we go give it or knock like that
make sure the bubbles went out and it’s
distributed nicely in the tin so there
we go that goes into an oven at 170
degrees for about an hour 115 minutes
hour and 15 minutes has passed what you
making ginger cake Oh
straight in the middle now this should
in theory come out nice and clear
spot-on every time look at that
beautiful if it’s got a bit good on it
whack it back in for another 5-10
minutes yummy
I’ve had this on a cooling rack for half
an hour and out beautiful look at it
baby there you can see lovely sticky
treacle in there
what better company is a nice bit of
vanilla ice cream look about praline
