To make Rum Cake you will need

Cake flour 2 1/2 cups (all-purpose flour or flour, whichever you prefer)

Baking powder 1 1/4 tsp

Salt 1 tsp

Baking soda 1/4 tsp

Sugar, 1 3/4 cups

Unsalted butter melted 10 tablespoons

Buttermilk 1/2 cup

Rum 1/2 cup

Vegetable oil 3 tbsp

Vanilla extract 1 tbsp

Large egg yolk 6

Egg white 3

So let's make rum cake

If you have OTG, preheat the oven rack to 180 degrees for the first 10 minutes. And if you have an oven, heat it to 350 degrees. If you do not have an oven or OTG, then keep a pan on a gas and spread a layer of salt in it. If you don't want to add salt, then put a cooker net under it. And make it hot.

Now in a large bowl, whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, and 1 1/2 cups sugar. In a separate medium bowl or large measuring cup, whisk together melted butter, buttermilk, rum, oil, vanilla and yolks. In the clean bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites on medium-high speed until foamy, about 30-45 seconds. While whisking, add the remaining 1/4 cup sugar. Continue mixing the batter until peaks form, approximately 60-90 seconds. Take out the whipped egg whites in a separate bowl and keep aside.

Pour the flour mixture into the mixing bowl. Again using the whisk attachment, gradually pour in the butter mixture and mix on medium speed just until it comes together about 15 seconds. Stop the mixer and whisk and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Beat with a mixer on medium speed until the mixture is smooth and completely homogeneous, about 10 to 15 seconds. Fold in the whipped white cream well, then add the remaining whites and fold gently.

Pour this solution evenly into the sugar pan. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean. (Do not over-bake!) Transfer the cake to a cooling rack and let it cool for at least 15 minutes.
