Poppy Seed Lime Cake - Week 14, 2017

This thermomix Poppy Seed Lime Cake came all about when travelling in Europe with our friends.  They decided that they would attempt to convert a french recipe to english!  The result of trying such a thing had us in stitches!!!  Nevertheless this cake is the result of said attempt and it is delicious!

I don't think Tony and Julia even had it translated in the end, so who knows if this is the actual recipe or one that they created! But either way it's worth the make!  Thanks to the French foodies !!!

I know you will enjoy this cake just as much as I from the responses that my recipe testers have shared!

Here are a couple of recipes to use the lime juice.  One or two might work on the Monthly Challenge as well :D

• Chicken & Creamy Coriander Lime Sauce,
• Lime & Ginger Curd,
• Exotic Thai with Cashews Dip,
• Thai Chilli, Coriander and Cashew Dip,
• Lime & Ginger Chicken.
