Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180 °C. Butter a 24–25 cm ring tin, dust it with 10 g of the flour, turn it over and tap out the excess.
  2. In a blender, blend the eggs (cracked one at a time into a small bowl first), oil, sugar and milk for about 5 minutes until smooth and pale.
  3. Pour into a large bowl and sift the cornmeal and the rest of the flour over it. Mix gently with a whisk, just until there are no lumps.
  4. Lastly, fold in the baking powder, fennel seeds and salt.
  5. Pour into the tin, level and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until a skewer comes out clean (if it is still wet, a few more minutes).
  6. Cool for 15 minutes before turning out and serve at room temperature, in slices.

Shopping tip

Fubá is fine yellow Portuguese farinha de milho (the one for papas and broa); do not use flocão or coarse polenta. Fennel seeds are in the spice aisle.
