What excited me even more was that I had everything that the recipe required in my kitchen! That doesn't happen too often! I considered this as my lucky charm and put my apron on. 40 minutes later, this is what came out of my oven....
Ingredients:
For the Cake-
2 tbs unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 tbs lemon rind
1 egg
1/4 cup fine semolina
1/4 cup ground almonds
1/4 cup black raisins
1/2 tsp baking powder
4 tbs plain yogurt
For the Syrup-
4 tbs sugar
2 tbs lemon juice, fresh
2tbs honey
Method:
1. Cream the sugar, butter and lemon rind with an electric beater until light and fluffy.
2. Crack the egg and beat into this mixture until well incorporated.
3. Lightly fold in the semolina, ground almonds, baking power, raisins and yogurt.
4. Line a 5 inch springform with parchment paper. Pour the mixture in it and bake at 350 deg F oven for 25-30 minutes. The cake is done when a tooth pick inserted at the center comes out clean. The top should turn golden brown.
5. Mix the ingredients for the syrup in a sauce pan. Heat it until the sugar melts but do not boil the mixture.
6. Drizzle the syrup on the cake as soon as it comes out of the oven.
7. Cool the cake completely and cut into triangular pieces. Serves 2-3.

I love lemon yogurt cake! My mother-in-law bakes something very similar to this, and I love it! I'll try your recipe, too! Cheers from my kitchen:)
Poonam, us Greeks also make use of semolina for cakes and this immediately drew me.
It's moist, firm and kinda nutty from the semolina...luv it!
Looks very tempting Poonam..

Lemon Semolina! Oh... I can taste that and it's wonderful....
40 minutes, you say... Patience has never been my long suit...
I love that kind of cake! Yours looks and sounds scrumptious!

This brings back memories of a cake a friend used to make just this way, but she would use orange.
Thanks for dropping by my blog.
I browsed through your entire collection...well almost, and just fell in love with your desserts! This one is so yummy, but then, so was the creme brulee (I made a veg. version with custard, cream topped on fruits and then caramelizing the top), the mango panna cotta...all yum!
oooh, semolina and almonds - must be a wonderful texture!!
(thanks for visiting my blog)
