Man Cooking

[frogbeastegg]

I'm the person who stopped Vuk making chocolate-oil cake. As such I should be honoured. Possibly with a nice statue surrounded by gardens.

Anyway, I wouldn't choose tempora. I prefer my men to stew

Yoyoma, dude, you're not making me feel like a man... you're making me sick.

Actually...

...the Chocolate-Oil cake does exist.

During the Great Lent (that is 40 days before easter I think) the Orthodox Christians are supposed to be fasting (they are not allowed to eat meat,butter etc) to show how earthly delights are not important (or something like that)...

...Anyway, during that time, apart from feasting on lobsters, prawns, calamari,mussels etc they also make oil based cakes...

...So with no further ado the oil-chocolate cake:

(I just found it online, dunno if it works)

5 cups of flour
3 cups of sugar
9 tablespoon of cocoa
1 cup of olive oil
Vanilla essence
Powdered Sugar

1. Beat the sugar and the oil together.
2. Add the essence, the cocoa and three cups of water and continue beating until the mixture is nice and smooth.
3. Add the flour slowly
4. Oil a tray, but the mixture in
5. Bake at 175 for 45'
6. When cold put powdered sugar on top
7. Become an atheist so you can eat proper cake


So Vuk was correct all along! Oh Yes!

ah yes, I remember this cake. I had a Christian Neighbor when I was in Salmiyyah, Kuwait. she would serve us vanilla and chocolate flavored cakes when she'd invite us over during lent. they are very good actually, and recommend it as a delicacy for vegetarians. my grandmother loved it, and actuakky keeps this same recipe in her kitchen. she'd cook it for grandfather when he was alive, even though he was a diabetic-he loved it a lot.

no, she did not become an Aetheist. last I heard, she is still christian. having cooked it myself, I'm still muslim as well. grandmother is als still a muslim.
