Setting the cake in baking tray/tin Preparation time: 2 Minutes

1. We are using an Aluminium round shaped tin to bake our cake. It is advisable that you use an aluminium tin as it goes well with baking in Cooker.

2. Do NOT use STEEL tray for baking. It is going to burn your cake.

3. Grease the tin with cooking Oil on all sides internally. This will help to make its surface non-sticky for the orange cake.
   
4. Now add 1/2 or 1 tsp of All-pupose-flour Maida and roll over the tin to spread it all over the surface.

   This will help you find the grey areas on surface which have not been greased with Oil. Grease them if you find any such areas.

5. Our baking tin is ready. Add the Orange Cake mixture.
   

Baking the cake in cooker Cook time: 37 Minutes

1. Now take a pressure cooker which is big enough to hold the tin.
   
2. Use an Idli stand and place it between cooker base and cake tin. This is done to avoid the direct heat to tin and avoid cake’s burning.

   You can also use a bowl if you do not have Idli stand.

   To check the baked cake:
