Cooking
First of all check whether all the products we have in stock)) Now mix semolina Mistral, cane sugar Demerara "Mistral" and the vanilla sugar. Instead of cane sugar you can take any other but the sugar from "Mistral" has a wonderful flavor that goes perfectly with this cherry-chocolate composition.
Mix the dry ingredients and fill them with boiled water, add the vegetable oil and insist hour until the semolina is not "disperse". If the water is to take it hot (not boiling water!) the process takes about half an hour.
While semolina and sugar infused, cut nuts and cherries - not very finely, so that in the finished pie felt pieces. The remainder of the thawing of cherry juice to add to our manno-sugar basis.
When semolina gets going, add in the cocoa dough. Chocolate powder is not scattered all over the kitchen, do it very carefully. And that was not trudnoreshaemyh lumps, sift the cocoa through a sieve. As a result, we should get a very beautiful grancio-chocolate mixture.
It is the turn to add coconut and mix dough with chopped walnuts and cherries. At this stage of preparation of the mixed flour.
Now prepare the baking dish. Pie to be easily removed, you can pour the bottom of the form with semolina. Or, as I did, covered baking paper. Lubricate the form of oil is not necessary - it already has enough in the test.
Turn on the oven and heat it to 180 degrees. Before you put the batter in the pan, add the soda. To taste the soda was not in the finished cake too sharp, extinguish it with lemon or orange juice, or vinegar. With cherry and chocolate goes well wine balsamic vinegar.
Now carefully and quickly all of it is kneaded, put into prepared pan and bake it in the oven. The oven door if possible, try not to slam, otherwise the dough is "frightened" and bad will be raised. Bake for approximately 45 minutes to an hour - who and what the oven.
The finished cake remove from the form, let cool and decorate with powdered sugar or a glaze. You can serve it with an amazing banana-chocolate cream (a bar of dark chocolate melt in a water bath and puree them in the blender with two bananas). Our cake is ready! Call for holiday guests and, despite the post, heartily entertained delicious pastries.
