JEWISH HONEY CAKE
This simple honey cake, also known as 'lekach', is a must-have sweet treat when celebrating the Jewish New Year, or Rosh Hashanah. It's best made a few days ahead, as the spicing and texture improve as it matures

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and line the base and sides of a 20cm square baking tin. Warm the oil, golden syrup, honey and sugar in a small pan to dissolve the sugar. Stir to combine, then leave to cool. Add the tea and beaten eggs.
- Lightly whisk the flour, baking powder, spices and a pinch of salt in a large bowl to combine. Make a well in the dry ingredients and mix in the wet ingredients, using a whisk or wooden spoon, until combined and lump-free.
- Pour the batter into the lined tin and sprinkle with the almonds, if you like. Bake for 50-55 mins, until the cake springs back when gently pressed and a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. Don't open the oven for the first 45 mins of baking.
- Leave to cool completely in the tin on a wire rack. Wrap well and keep for three to four days before eating, so the flavour can improve. Cut into nine squares to serve.

Steps:

- Get a baking pan with a 7 cup capacity.
- Grease lightly and set it aside.

- Beat until the mixture is totally smooth and creamy.
- Sift the flour and measure off 3 cups.
- Combine the flour with the salt, baking powder, baking soda and the spices.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture alternately with the coffee, stirring with a spatula or a wooden spoon.
- Do NOT use and electric mixer for this one.
- Stir only until all the ingredients are well blended, do not overmix.
- Clean and dry the mixer beaters.
- Whip the egg whites until they are stiff and can hold their shape.
- Add one third of the beaten whites at a time to the batter.
- Fold in gently until the batter is smooth.
- Don't overbeat the whites or you will end up with little islands of egg white that will never be blended into the batter.
- Pour the batter into the greased pan and bake in the preheated oven for about 80 to 90 minutes.
- The cake is done when a toothpick comes out dry and clean.
- This cake keeps really well.
- In fact, it gets better with a little aging, so bake it several days ahead.
