Instructions
For Baking the Cake
Preheat cooker for 10 Mins at high flame.
In a large mixing bowl add Curd, sugar & olive oil, whisk it well until sugar dissolves completely.
Then add grated beetroot & vanilla essence, whisk to combine it well.
In another mixing bowl, sieve flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients gradually in 2 batch and fold the batter until combines well.
Don't overmix the batter & make sure the batter is lump free.
Cake batter is ready, now pour the batter into an 6 inch square greased cake tin & tap it twice to remove air bubbles.
Bake the cake for about 40 mins in a preheated cooker.
Check the cake with a toothpick by inserting it in the middle, if it comes out clean then the cake is perfectly baked.
After baking, cool down the cake completely on the wire rack.
For Buttercream Frosting
In large bowl, beat butter until smooth, creamy & fluffy.
Then add powdered sugar in 2 to 3 batch n beat until frosting reach stiff peak.
Lastly add vanilla extract & pink gel colour, just fold it. So,  Buttercream frosting is ready.
Tips
  • Keep a stack or stand inside a cooker while preheating the cooker.
  • Make sure to remove whistle and gasket.
  • If you don't have a cake tin then use any available round or square container for baking.
  • Make sure to pre-heat for 10 mins on high flame.
  • Bake the cake for 40 mins on low to medium flame.
  • I prefer less sweet but you can increase according to taste.
  • if baking in oven then bake it at 180°C for 35 mins.
