Semolina cake (Suji-Doi Cake)

A simple cake ma used to make to put in our tiffin boxes. She prepared them way back in the sixties , then in  her simple round cake oven that had a big whole in the middle . We simply adored her ring shaped  basic cakes prepared with lots of love.

I saw this recipe on television and it bought back happy memories. Called ma up and it was so nice to refresh memories.
