Not what one might normally think of as an Asian dessert but when I was asked by friends to bring an Ottolenghi sweet treat for a celebratory Chinese New Year Lunch, with blueberries plentiful & in season this was my choice. Lemony touch was perfect after a fabulous range of delicious Chinese mains. Almond meal makes this cake moist and rich. Easily enough for 10. Cooking was a bit tricky, it did take at least 10 mins longer than the recipe but could be because I opened a few times to check on the roasting beetroots for the next post (my aim is to use the oven as much as possible when on).
Happy New Year!
