Ingredients

225g plain flour

3 heaped tsps baking powder

175g dark brown soft sugar

1 tsp ground ginger

1 tsp ground corriander

1 tsp mixed spice

100g sultanas

100g fresh diced mangoes

450g grated carrots

1 egg, beaten

250ml skimmed or semi-skimmed milk

Topping

100g quark (soft cheese)

zest of 1 orange

100g icing sugar

a few poppy seeds

Directions

Preheat the oven to 180C, 350F, Gas Mark 4. Line a 450g (1lb) round cake tin with greaseproof paper or baking parchment, or use a non-stick tin.

In a bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, sugar, ground corriander, spice, sultanas, and diced mangoes. Add the grated carrots and stir well.

Mix the beaten egg with the milk. Stir into the mixture and mix well. Pour the mixture into the prepared tin and bake in the oven for 50-55 minutes. To test if the cake is cooked, insert a skewer into the cake. The skewer should come out clean.

Leave to cool.

Before serving, make the topping (if using) by mixing together the quark, orange zest and icing sugar until smooth.

Spread over the top of the cake. Sprinkle with poppy seeds.
