Method

1

Mix the semolina, warm kefir, lemon juice and zest together, then let it sit for 20-30 minutes to hydrate.

2

Whip the eggs, sugar, and salt until you get a pale, fluffy mixture—about 3-4 minutes.

3

Fold the hydrated semolina into the eggs, then add the baking powder and vegetable oil—mix gently with a spatula until just combined.

4

Butter your cake tin, then pour the batter in.

5

Bake at 350°F for roughly 35-40 minutes, until a skewer comes out clean.

6

For the syrup, combine water, sugar, and citrus juice in a saucepan, bring to a boil, and simmer for 3 minutes.

7

While the cake is still hot, you can brush it with the hot syrup to soak it in.
