Herman the Sourdough Cake

Herman the Sourdough Cake

How to keep your Herman happy;
DAY 1 - Hello, my name is Herman. I need to sit on your kitchen worktop for 10 days without a lid. Please do not put me in the fridge or I will die. If I stop bubbling I am dead. Put me in a large, non-metallic mixing bowl and cover me loosely with a tea towel.
DAY 2 - Stir well.
DAY 3 - Stir well.
DAY 4 - Herman is hungry! Add one cup plain flour, one cup sugar and one cup milk. Stir well.
DAYS 5, 6, 7 and 8 - Stir well every day.
DAY 9 - Herman is hungry again. Add one cup plain flour, one cup sugar and one cup milk and stir well. Divide into four equal portions and give away to three friends with a copy of these instructions. Keep the fourth portion.
DAY 10 - Herman is very hungry! Stir well and add the following:
1 cup sugar
Half teaspoon salt
2 cups plain flour
2 thirds of a cup cooking oil
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla essence
2 medium cooking apples, cut into small chunks
1 cup raisins
2 heaped teaspoons cinnamon
2 heaped teaspoons baking powder
Mix everything together and put into a large greased baking tin. Sprinkle with quarter cup of brown sugar and quarter cup melted
butter. Bake for 45 minutes at 170-180C.
When the cake is cold, cut into finger pieces. Cake freezes well and is also delicious warm with cream or ice cream
