"When it comes to storing perishables like dairy, the freezer is your best friends. Milk and yoghurt can be stored in ice cube trays and popped out to use in smoothies." - Ronni Kahn.

7. 1 1/2 cups (225g) self-raising flour, sifted
8. 3/4 cup (45g) shredded coconut
9. 180g natural yoghurt
10. 120ml lime juice

13. 370g caster sugar
14. Finely grated zest of 2 limes plus 1 cup (250ml) lime juice

3.Combine the semolina, almond meal, flour and coconut together in a bowl and gently stir into the egg mixture. Add yoghurt and lime juice, stirring until just combined (be sure not to overwork the mixture). Spoon batter into prepared pan and bake for 1 hour or until lightly golden on top and a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean. Remove from the oven, cover with foil and stand for 10 minutes.
4.Meanwhile, for the syrup, combine sugar and juice in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Simmer uncovered for 5 minutes or until slightly reduced, stir in the zest.
5.Using a skewer, prick holes into the cake then pour half of the hot syrup over the top – it will be absorbed through the holes. Leave to stand for 1 hour before removing from pan and transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
