Citrus And Poppy Seeds Cake

  1. Zest the citrus fruits. Beat the butter until creamy with 100g of sugar, whisk in the eggs, the zest, the yogurt and milk. Mix in the flour, to which you will have already added the baking soda, and the poppy seeds.
  2. Butter a loaf tin and line with parchment paper.
  3. Pour the mixture in the tin and bake in a preheated oven at 180Cu0b0 for about an hour, or until the surface is golden and the cake passes the 'toothpick test' (ie: a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean and dry).
  4. Meanwhile, squeeze the oranges, lemons and lime and strain the juice. Pour it into a small saucepan with 100g of sugar and bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar is not dissolved. Remove from the heat.
  5. When the cake is ready, remove from the oven and prick all over the top using a toothpick or a thin skewer. Gently pour the citrus syrup over the cake and sprinkle with a pinch of poppy seeds. Allow the syrup to soak through for a few minutes before removing the cake from the tin.
