This is so popular here it even comes in cans! Ingredients:
8 oz self-raising flour |
4 oz shredded suet (regular or vegetarian) |
8 oz currants or raisins |
6 oz cold water |
1 oz sugar |
1 tsp cinnamon |
1 pinch salt |
Directions:
1. Mix together the flour, sugar, salt, suet , cinnamon and the currents/raisins. 2. Keep mixing and add a little water at a time until it becomes a firm dough. 3. Roll into a long cylindrical shape that is about 8 inches long. 4. Carefully place the rolled pastry into a small pan that is close to 8 inches diameter as possible. 5. Place this smaller pan into a larger one then fill the larger pan with boiling water, but do not fill so that the water spills into the smaller pan. This is to make a steamer to 'steam' the pudding. 6. Put on the lid to the larger pan and steam for about 2 1/4 hours, making sure that the water is topped up in the outer pan with boiling water. 7. Serve with custard. |
