Steamed Banana Choc Cake

My oven ended it's last day with a huge BANG a few weeks ago, and I've not had a chance to get a replacement yet. I miss baking very much. It's one of my stress-reliever. But, I'm not going to let this ruin my love for baking. I'm gonna make steamed desserts from now on, till I get a new oven that is. To start the ball rolling, I found this delicious recipe for the good ol' Banana Cake that's steamed instead of baked. The only difference to the end product is that it's less dark and doesn't have a crusty top. But it tastes just as good...in fact it's soft and moist! I omitted the ovalette that was stated in the recipe though, as I didn't have any at that time of making it. Still it's Yummm! Try this.
