Step-by-Step Instructions

1. 1.Prepare the Egg Mixture

   In a bowl, combine 1/2 cup sugar and grate 1/4 portion of nutmeg. Add 2 eggs and whisk the mixture until the sugar completely dissolves and the mixture is frothy.

2. 2.Add Ghee and Seasoning

   Pour in 1/3 cup of ghee and a pinch of salt. Mix well with the whisk until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and the mixture is smooth.

3. 3.Incorporate Dry Ingredients

   Add 1/2 cup semolina, 1/2 cup milk powder, and a pinch of baking powder to the wet mixture. Mix well until a smooth, thick batter forms.

4. 4.Prepare Baking Pan

   Grease a 6-inch baking pan with ghee. Line the bottom with baking paper and grease the paper as well to prevent sticking.

5. 5.Add Batter and Toppings

   Pour the prepared batter into the greased and lined baking pan. Sprinkle chopped nuts (like almonds) evenly over the top of the batter.

6. 6.Bake the Cake

   Bake the cake in a preheated oven at 160°C (320°F) for 30-40 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

7. 7.Prepare Sugar Syrup

   While the cake is baking, prepare the sugar syrup. In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of sugar with 1/4 cup of hot water. Mix well until the sugar dissolves completely, then set aside to cool down.

8. 8.Soak with Syrup and Cool

   Once the cake is out of the oven, immediately pour or brush the cooled sugar syrup evenly over the hot cake. Let the cake cool down completely in the pan.

9. 9.Serve

   Once completely cooled, carefully remove the cake from the pan. Slice it into desired pieces and serve.
