Bolu Kukus Lapis Tuna #keto #lowcarb
Ingredients
For the Cake Layer:
- 3 whole eggs
- 3 sachets of Diabetasol
- 1 teaspoon of SP (cake emulsifier)
- Vanilla extract to taste
- 3 tablespoons of coconut flour
- 100 ml of instant coconut milk
For the Filling:
- 1 can of tuna flakes
- 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise
- 1/2 sachet of Diabetasol
- Bon cabe (spicy seasoning) to taste
Steps
-
Prepare the Steamer:
- Begin by heating up your steamer to ensure it’s ready when you need to steam the cake layers.
-
Mix the Cake Ingredients:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs, SP, Diabetasol, and vanilla extract. Use a mixer on high speed to whisk the mixture until it becomes thick and leaves trails when you lift the beaters (this is known as the ribbon stage).
-
Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients:
- Reduce the mixer speed to the lowest setting. Gradually add the coconut flour and instant coconut milk. Continue mixing until everything is well incorporated and smooth.
-
First Layer Steaming:
- Grease a cake pan with coconut oil to prevent sticking. Pour half of the cake batter into the prepared pan. Place the pan in the steamer and steam for about 10 minutes, or until the layer is partially set.
-
Prepare the Filling:
- While the first layer is steaming, prepare the tuna filling. In a bowl, mix together the tuna flakes, mayonnaise, Diabetasol, and Bon cabe. Adjust the seasoning to your taste.
-
Assemble the Cake:
- Once the first layer is ready, evenly spread the tuna filling over it. Pour the remaining cake batter on top of the filling, ensuring it covers the filling completely.
-
Final Steaming:
- Place the pan back in the steamer and steam for another 20 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean.
-
Cooling and Serving:
- For a firmer texture, you can refrigerate the cake before serving. This step is optional but recommended for a more set consistency.
Notes
- Texture Tip: Refrigerating the cake after steaming helps achieve a denser texture, making it easier to slice and serve.
- Spice Level: Adjust the amount of Bon cabe to your preference. If you prefer a milder filling, use less Bon cabe, and if you enjoy a spicier kick, add more.
- Serving Suggestion: This cake makes a delightful and unique snack, perfect for those following a keto or low-carb diet. It’s also a great option for sharing at gatherings or as a savory treat.
