For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl. -

Tip
You can put the mixture into muffin pans as it makes lovely muffins, cooking in approx 25 minutes.
Icing is optional but the recipe for cream cheese icing for the Carribean Carrot Cake in the EDC is nice with this, or make frosting using 30gm soft butter, 1 tspn of grated orange rind (saved as above), 2 cups icing sugar (made in TMX), 2 tblspn orange juice.

I didn't read the part about
I didn't read the part about putting the almonds and zucchini to the side, so mine probably ended up a little more blended than was meant to be, but turned out wonderful! It's such a yummy cake. Great taste, will definatly be making again.
