* Now add the carrot, french beans, cilantro,shredded coconut and green peas and saute for another one minute. Switch off the flame.

* Add this sauted mixture into semolina mixture and mix it very well. And also add 1/4 cup of water to the mixture.(Do not add more water nor less water)

* Now the tricky part, add in the baking soda,mix it as quickly as possible with batter and pour the batter into the greased pan.

* Garnish the top with white sesame seeds and place it in the middle rack of oven.

* Bake this for 30 to 35 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean.

* Remove baked cake from the oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes.
