Munchy Monday #9: Crazy chocolate cake

You will need:

Dry ingredients
400 g plain flour, sieved
3 tblsp. heaped cocoa powder, sieved
1 cup white sugar
1 tsp baking powder (raising agent), sieved
3/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. baking soda

Wet ingredients
1 tsp. vanilla essence
1 tblsp. vinegar
5 tblsp. sunflower oil (or similar)
1 cup warm water

Method:

Mix wet ingredients together in a bowl and add to dry ingredients. Stir carefully and pour batter into a greased oven dish or similar. (I use a 30cm. diameter deep pie dish.)
Cook in a medium oven, 175ºC, for about 20 minutes. It may need a little longer, but be careful it does not start burning underneath.

Note: This is a no-egg, no-dairy recipe, ideal for families who have dietary restrictions. It makes a fairly big cake, about 10 servings, and we use it to celebrate our birthdays. I serve strawberries alongside and those who can, pour cream over the whole lot!
