Step-by-step instructions

1. Preparing the ingredients: Start by preparing all the ingredients. Make sure the olives are sliced, the bell pepper and smoked salami are diced, and the cheese is grated. This step will help you save time during preparation.

2. Beating the eggs: In a large bowl, crack the 6 eggs. Use a whisk or an electric mixer to beat them well. Continue beating the eggs until their volume doubles and they become frothy. This step is essential for achieving a fluffy and airy cake.

3. Adding dry ingredients: Sift the white flour and baking powder together to avoid lumps. Add the flour mixture to the bowl with the beaten eggs and gently fold in with a spatula until the ingredients are fully incorporated.

4. Including wet ingredients and fillings: Add the 4 tablespoons of oil to the mixture. Then, fold in the sliced green olives, grated cheese, bell pepper, mushrooms, and, if desired, the diced smoked salami. All these ingredients will add extra flavor to your cake.

5. Preparing the pot: Grease the inner pot of the Philips Multicooker with a little oil and dust it with flour to prevent the cake from sticking. This is a simple but effective technique that will ensure a perfect cake.

6. Pouring the mixture: Pour the obtained mixture into the prepared pot. Use the spatula to level the surface, ensuring the cake will bake evenly.

7. Setting the cooking program: Start the Philips Multicooker, press the "Menu" button, and select the "Bake" program. Set the temperature to 180 degrees Celsius. Then, press "Cooking Time" and select 45 minutes. Once you have configured all the settings, press "Start" and close the lid.

8. Waiting: Now that you have set the machine, relax for 45 minutes. You can take care of other preparations or enjoy a break. The delicious aroma that will fill your home is a sign that the cake is on the right track!

9. Checking and cooling: After the program has finished, unplug the device from the power source. Let the cake cool in the pot for a few minutes, then carefully remove it from the inner pot. Use the spatula to detach it from the edges, if necessary.

10. Serving: Portion the cake with a sharp knife. Place the servings on a plate and, for a nice presentation, you can decorate with a sprig of parsley. This appetizer cake is delicious both warm and cold, so you can serve it at a party or as a snack between meals.
