A very light (as in not heavy) pudding. I have no idea what instant flour is, so I used normal all-purpose flour with 1/2 tsp of baking powder. The batter is very liquidy, but not to worry, after you add the beaten egg whites, and cooks, it stiffens up nicely. The flavour is really mild. I didn't have any orange liqueur on hand and I was just trying out this recipe for a dinner we are having this sunday for some elderly people who wouldn't want anything too heavy, so I didn't make the sauce. The sauce (and I think an orange sauce, to bring out the flavour) is a must.And if you are looking for a mild flavoured, not too heavy dessert, this fits the bill. By the way, the photograph is definteily not of this pudding. There is no base and the pudding has more of soft spongy look as compared to the smooth, cheesecake texure.
Edit : Made it for the party. Half through the cooking I found that I was out of lime juice, so I doubled the orange juice and reduced the quanity of milk by 1/4 cup (so as to keep the amount of liquid same). It turned out just fine - with more of an orange taste (earlier it was an orange - lemon citrusy taste)
