Notes

Due to the usage of whole meal flour,'baking soda' instead of 'baking powder' is required in this recipe.
The batter might look a bit thick due to the use of wholemeal flour.
Curdling the milk with vinegar helps the cake to be more soft when it works with baking soda.
The sugar used is powdered after measure. if you powder the sugar then measure it, it will not be that sweet.
