Prepare the simmered persimmons: Peel the persimmons and cut into 1 cm wedges.

Put the persimmons, sugar and butter in a frying pan and stir them up.

Cover with a lid and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally.

Take off the lid after 3 minutes.

Continue cooking over medium-low heat for another 3 minutes, stirring constantly.

Turn off the heat when the persimmons are translucent.

Arrange the cooked persimmons in a spiral pattern in the frying pan.

Whisk together the pancake mix, egg, sugar, and milk in a bowl.

Melt the butter by microwaving it in a heat-proof dish for about 20 seconds at 600 W, then whisk it into the batter in Step 6.
-
11
Gently pour the batter into the frying pan.
-
12
Cover with a lid and cook for 8-10 minutes over the lowest possible heat, while keeping an eye on it.

Turn the heat off, and leave it as is for five minutes.

Remove the lid and run a rubber spatula around the pan to loosen the cake so that you can remove it easily.

Invert a large plate on the frying pan.
-

Holding the plate and frying pan, invert the cake onto the plate.

The finished cake will look something like this.
