Nigella’s Lemon Polenta Cake video with Martha Stewart

In this video Nigella Lawson appeared on the Martha Stewart show and made a tasty lemon polenta cake, and explains how to make the gluten-free recipe using almond flour, fine cornmeal, baking powder, zested lemons and lemon juice. The cake should be ready in 40 minutes.

Some things to bear in mind about using polenta:

  • it provides only 70 calories per 100 grams (g) cooked serving
  • one serving contains 16 grams of carbohydrates, including 1.5 grams of dietary fibre

Obviously adding flavourings will drive up the fat and calories!
