Pull the currants gently off their stems. Rinse them and set aside. Finely
chop the zest. Set aside. Butter the sides and bottom of a 10-inch cake
pan; line the bottom with a circle of parchment or wax paper. Preheat the
oven to 350 F. Using an electric mixer (paddle attachment if you have one),
cream the butter and sugar until light. Mix in the oil. Add the eggs and
mix until smooth. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl. With the mixer
on low speed, add the baking powder and 1 cup of flour. When well combined,
add half the milk, another cup of flour, the rest of the milk, and the rest
of the flour, mixing well after each addition. Stop to scrape the bowl as
necessary. Remove the bowl from the mixer and gently fold in the currants
and orange zest. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until
golden brown and firm on top, about 50 minutes. Cool on a rack to room
temperature. Serve with lightly whipped unsweetened cream.
