Water bath method :
Bring 1/2 litre water to a boil in a separate vessel.
Use 8 inch/ 10 inch baking tray. Place the cake batter tray into it.
Carefully and gently add water in the outer tray.
Place the preheated oven to bake. Bake for at least 45 mins to 1 hour depending on the type of oven used.
Please note: I have used a gas oven to bake the cake. To brown the top , I put it in the OTG for 5 mins , with only the top coils on.
If using OTG , use only the bottom coil to bake.Once done turn off the bottom and use the upper coil to brown the top if not already brown.
