Curry Cakes

Small savory-sweet curry-scented pan cakes with maple syrup on side. Source : Alexander Filippini, The International Cook Book (1906), filippini-1906-1112. Adaptation documentaire ; illustration synthétique. Recette non cuisinée ni mesurée par cette campagne. Adaptations : Use commercial baking powder and culinary Indian curry powder. The two-and-half-inch dimension describes the ladle opening; four cakes are a pan batch. Verify 74°C centres beyond the per-side guides as needed, and serve maple syrup separately. Limites : Ladle capacity, actual cake diameter and yield, baking-powder strength, curry blend and butter/syrup amounts remain unknown. FOUR is cakes per pan batch, not finished total.
