Strawberry Steamed Cake

My second attempt in 4 days, since there are some leftover strawberry sauce from my panna cotta. This time, I reduced the amount of flour, achieved a slightly more "moist" mixture, and end result was better than previous one. The best part is... the fragrance of the strawberries filling up my house during steaming! :)

love the colour so much, that I've made this the background pic of this blog :)

Strawberry Steamed Cake
Adapted from:  Cuisine Paradise

Ingredients: (makes 4)
90g Plain Flour
1 tsp Baking Powder
2 tbsp Fine Sugar
1 Large Egg, 60g
50ml Strawberry Puree
2 Strawberries (diced for topping)

Preparation for the strawberry puree:
1. Dice 4-5 strawberries, add around 50ml of water and add sugar depending on the sweetness of the strawberries. (I added 1 tbsp)
2. Boil the mixture over low heat till strawberries soften,.
3. Remove from heat, mash the strawberries with a fork and stir till mixture becomes thick.

Directions:
1. Sift flour and baking powder in a bowl. Set aside. At the same time, preheat a steamer/wok filled with water till boiling point.
2. Using a balloon whisk, beat egg and sugar together till foamy and pale in colour.
3. Divide the sifted flour into two batches, stir in alternately with the strawberry puree to form a smooth batter. Add additional water if  neccessary.
4. Spoon the cake batter evenly into 4 prepared foil/ramekins cups that are lined with paper liners. Add the diced strawberry cubes as topping.
6. Place the cups in the steamer/wok(with boiling water in it), cover and steam over high heat for about 12-15 minutes(depending on the size) or until a skewer inserted into one of the buns comes out clean.
