Ingredients

 Coconut100 Gram, desiccated
 Raisin250 Gram
 Salt1.25 Milliliter
 Butter/Margarine125 Gram, cut into pieces
 Caster sugar125 Gram
 Cherries125 Gram, finely chopped
 Eggs2
 Milk300 Milliliter
 Shredded coconut25 Gram

Directions

1. Grease a 1.3 litre (2 1/4 pint) ovenproof glass ring mould or microwave ring mould and sprinkle with 25 g (1 oz) of the desiccated coconut, spreading any excess evenly in the base of the mould.
2. Put the flour and the salt into a mixing bowl and rub in the butter until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the desiccated coconut, sugar and cherries.
3. Add the eggs and milk and then beat well, adding more milk, if necessary, to make a soft dropping consistency. Spoon the mixture into the prepared dish, smooth the top and scatter the shredded coconut over the top.
4. Cover loosely with cling film and microwave on HIGH for 10-11 minutes until the cake is well risen and just dry on the surface. A wooden cocktail stick or skewer should come out clean when inserted into the centre. Give the cake a quarter turn four times during the cooking time.
5. Allow the cake to stand in its dish for 10 minutes before carefully turning it out on to a rack to cool.
