After that, place the baking tray into the kadai over a steel ring. It is better to keep some salt over the bottom of the kadai to protect it from overheating. Cover and bake for 40–50 minutes on medium heat. (Bake in a preheated oven for 30–40 minutes at 170 degrees Celsius.) After 50 minutes, open the lid and check the cake by inserting a toothpick. if the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is well-baked.
