Vegan Corn cake


Another vegan recipe for this Kinje festival. ^^

My family doesn't eat vegan (or Kinje) this month, but creating a menu for this festival is quite fun for me. As it's not easy to make delicious bake good when we can't use many ingredients.
This time is a vegan corn cake. Because we can't use eggs, we have to add other ingredients such as potato starch to create the structure for the cake. 
You can use rice flour instead of cake flour to make the gluten-free cake too. 
The ingredients for this cake is easy to get from the supermarket, well I rarely use premixed or add more chemical to create this kind of recipe (anyway, the shortening that I use is using a natural process to solidify the rice bran oil, so it's safe to use too).
