Kabocha Squash Cake in a Frying Pan
I wanted to try making a cake like "Apple Cake Made With Pancake Mix", using kabocha squash instead of apples.
The first time I made it, it burned, so the next time I halved the amount of batter and didn't cook it as long, and it turned out well.
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Cut 100 g kabocha squash into 5 mm thick wedges, without peeling, and arrange them in a spiral pattern in a frying pan. Cut off any parts that overlap.
* Step 2
Peel 50 g kabocha squash, cut it into 5 mm pieces and put in a heatproof container (such as a silicone container).
* Step 3
Add 2 teaspoons water to the container, cover with plastic wrap or a lid, and microwave for one and a half minutes.
* Step 4
Take off the plastic wrap (or the lid) and mash the kabocha squash with a fork or potato masher.
* Step 5
Put the pancake mix, egg, sugar, milk and mashed kabocha squash in a bowl and mix well with a whisk.
* Step 6
Put 5 g butter in a separate heatproof container, microwave for about 30 seconds to melt the buter, and stir it into the Step 5 mixture.
* Step 7
Take the kabocha squash out of the frying pan in Step 1, and add the sugar, cinnamon and butter to the pan.
* Step 8
Heat the pan over low heat, stir with a spatula until the butter is melted, then turn off the heat.
* Step 9
Rearrange the kabocha squash from Step 7 in the frying pan in the same way as before.
* Step 10
Pour the batter from Step 6 over the kabocha squash.
* Step 11
Cover the frying pan with a lid, and cook over the lowest possible heat for 8 minutes.
* Step 12
If using a gas flame, it should be about this strength.
* Step 13
When the center of the cake puffs up, turn off the heat. Leave the frying pan as is for 5 minutes with the lid on.
* Step 14
Remove the lid, and run a spatula around the edges so you can remove the cake easily.
* Step 15
Invert a large plate on top of the frying pan. Holding the frying pan and the plate, invert the cake onto the plate.
