Preheat pressure cooker/ heavy bottomed pan on medium low flame on small burner for 15-20 minutes. If baking in oven, preheat it to 180°C.

Mix together flour, sugar, baking powder and baking soda.

Add the melted butter, milk, curd and vanilla essence and mix to form a thick batter.

Coat the glazed cherries or tutti frutti with some flour and add it to batter reserving a few to top the cake.

Mix well and transfer to a 7" cake tin which is greased and lined.

Sprinkle the remaining cherries on top and bake in the preheated pan/ cooker/ oven for 35-40 minutes.

Check with a tooth pick and if it comes out clean, remove it on to a wire rack.

Loosen the sides of the tin from the cake and transfer it to the wire rack. 

Once it is completely cool, slice and serve it.
