Orange Yoghurt Cake

My new toy from Santa is a Kindle, and I am in love.  I have been having a great time downloading the daily deals and reading books that I would not otherwise have read.  At present, I am reading The Marrying of Chani Kaufman by Eve Harris, about the marriage of two young Haredi Jews in London and the effect their match has on their nearest and dearest. I am really enjoying it, as it is about the stuff of life for all of us, whether Haredi Jews or not. One reviewer likened it to Pride and Prejudice, with Mrs Levy taking the place of Lady Catherine de Burgh and Chani filling in for Elizabeth - and I so agree!!  I won't spoil it for you, but this book is good for a laugh and will also have your squirming with the awkwardness that the characters face, especially the young couple, Baruch and Chani.

This week, I had a leftovers dilemma in my fridge, with a surplus of oranges and yoghurt.  What better to make with them than an orange yoghurt cake?  I used this reader recipe from the Nigella.com forum.  It makes a ginormous bundt cake which is moist and delicious, although it seemed to pack a little too much of a sugar hit for me. Here's a peek inside:

It disappeared quite quickly at work, so I am gathering it was a winner.  So there you go - if life gives you oranges, make orange cake!
