Tell us what is wrong and we'll fix it.
Hi, Gran! It's me. Have you got a minute?
Jamie! Of course, love. What's up?
Well... I want to make your lemon cake.
Oh, lovely! Have you got a pen?
Yes. Ready when you are.
Right. 225 grams of butter, nice and soft.
225? Two, two, five?
That's it. And the same of sugar.
Then 4 eggs and 2 lemons.
Oh no. I've only got 1 lemon.
Then go to the shop, Jamie!
Ha! Fine. What about the flour?
250 grams of self-raising flour.
Wait, 215 or 250?
250. Two, five, zero.
Sorry, Gran. The line's a bit bad.
Now, put the oven on 180 degrees.
Is that for a fan oven?
Hmm... no. For a fan oven, make it 160.
160. Okay. And for how long?
About 45 minutes.
45, not 54?
Ha! 54 and it'll be black, love.
Got it. 45 minutes.
So, who's the cake for, then?
Um... it's for a friend. Her name's Ella.
Ooh, a friend! E-L-L-A? I'll remember that!
Gran! Bye!
