[food] Carrot-orange-pomegranate cake

I have this problem with oil-based carrot cakes that they are always way too heavy on the oil relative to everything else, as far as I can tell. Ergo I am writing down what it is I actually did this evening so I don't end up grumpily improvising every time.

175g light brown sugar [125g white, 50g dark muscovado]
175ml oil
3 eggs
150g grated carrot
250g SR flour [125g SR flour, 125g wholemeal flour]
25g ground almonds
2 tsp baking powder
cinnamon, nutmeg

juice of one orange, pomegranate juice, sugar

Preheat oven to 180degC. Combine sugar, oil, eggs; mix until thick. Mix in carrots. Mix in all dry ingredients. Bake for ~45 minutes.

Meanwhile combine juices and sugar in a pan and boil until usefully syrupy.

When the cake is done (skewer or knife poked into it comes out clean), *without turning it out* make lots of little stabby holes and pour the syrup over slowly. Once the syrup's set transfer to suitable plate/tin/whatever.

I ate mine with pomegranate seeds and yoghurt; housemate & D decided the concept was an abomination and ate it neat.
