• On Chocolate and beetroot cake:

  Posted on 26th of July 2009

  Fabulously chocolaty cake! No one would guess there is beetroot in it. It is so easy to make and doesn't need the sauce at all. Keeps remarkably well without drying out. Replaced plain flour with wholewheat spelt flour and cake was still light and fluffy. Would recommend upping the beetroot to 300g, though. Warning: Recipe recommends using a 20cm cake tin but a 23cm cake tin is definitely needed!

  Substituted salt for fish sauce. I suppose the taste depends on what kind of curry paste you use. I added the other half of the coconut milk at the end of the cooking time.

  Excellent recipe! Used only swede for the mash as I had a big one and it really worked. Definitely worth the effort.

  Very nice, but did it without the celeriac as it wasn't in the list of ingredients.
