Grilled lemon cake with strawberries and lemon thyme cream
Cakes
Grill
The idea of dessert on the grill is fascinating, especially if cake and what better to serve with than summer berries and a mixture of cream and lemon thyme curd. I love the combination of strawberries and lemon - I think they are a marriage made n heaven. Day old cake left at room temperature is best for this, as it is slightly drier and holds better. Note - if you can't grill the cake on coals/gas, use a heated, slightly oiled grill pan.Tips for baking the cake? Measure out the oil first before the yogurt - its easier and ensures you get your full measure; the sprinkled light brown sugar bakes crisp and gives a nice crunchy topping, as does the sprinkling of almond meal round the tin. To slice the cake, use a sharp knife, not a serated one or table knife - this leaves a smooth, finer face on the cake. Grilling the cake gives it a nice crunchy exterior and a soft interior, not to mention a nice smokiness that goes well with the cherries which soften, sweeten and become juicier. This is great use for left over cake.... - Kitchen Butterfly
