Ingredients:

  • 125 g butter
  • 3/4 cup white sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice
  • 1/3 cup water

Directions:

  1. Grease a shallow 20cm (7 ) ring pan or a 20cm (7 inch) round cake tin.
  2. Set oven to 160°C (325°F).
  3. Combine butter, rind and sugar in a small bowl and beat with an electric mixer until the mixture becomes light and fluffy.
  4. Add eggs, one at a time, beating constantly until the eggs are completely combined.
  5. Transfer the mixture into a larger bowl.
  6. Place a sieve over the larger bowl and sift in the flour.
  7. Add the coconut and stir until well mixed.
  8. Spoon the mixture into the cake tin and bake on the centre shelf of the oven at 160°C (325°F) for 45 minutes or until cooked.
  9. Syrup: Just before the cake is finished cooking, prepare the lemon syrup.
  10. Combine all the syrup ingredients in a small saucepan over a medium heat.
  11. Stir over the heat until the sugar is dissolved.
  12. (Do not let the mixture boil at this stage).
  13. When all the sugar is dissolved, increase the heat and bring the mixture to a boil.
  14. Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer, uncovered, without stirring for 3 minutes.
  15. Now, take the cake out of the oven, turn it onto a plate and pour the hot syrup slowly over the hot cake until all the syrup is absorbed.
