• 1 cup (240g) ripe mango, chopped
• 1.5 cups (280g) fine semolina (sooji)
• ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
• ½ cup flavorless cooking oil
• ¾ cup + 3 tablespoons milk, at room temperature
• 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon baking soda
• 1 tsp cardamom powder (optional)
• Dry fruits / tutti frutti (optional)
• Chopped pistachios, for garnish
• Sliced almonds, for garnish

1. 1Peel and chop the mango into small cubes.
2. 2Grind 1.5 cups of sooji into a fine, flour-like powder in a mixer jar.
3. 3Blend the chopped mango and 100g of sugar in the same mixer jar to create a smooth mango puree, without adding water or milk.
4. 4In a mixing bowl, combine the powdered sooji, ½ cup cooking oil, mango puree, and ¾ cup milk, then whisk thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined and the batter is smooth.
5. 5Prepare a 7-inch round cake tin by greasing it with cooking oil, lining it with butter paper, lightly greasing the butter paper again, and also lining the side walls with butter paper.
6. 6After the batter has rested for 30 minutes, add 1.5 teaspoons baking powder, ¼ teaspoon baking soda, and an additional 3 tablespoons of milk.
7. 7Gently mix the batter in one direction, just enough to combine the new additions without overmixing.
8. 8Pour the flowing batter into the prepared cake tin, gently tap a couple of times to release air bubbles, and smooth the top.
9. 9Generously garnish the top with chopped pistachios and sliced almonds.
10. 10Preheat the OTG to 180°C for 10 minutes.
11. 11Place the cake tin on the lower rack and bake at 170°C for 40 minutes.
12. 12Move the cake to the middle rack and bake for another 5 minutes to achieve a golden-brown top, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
13. 13Remove the cake from the oven, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and allow it to cool down completely to retain moisture and softness.
14. 14Once cooled, carefully demold the cake and remove the butter paper from the sides and bottom.
