The base pudding is a quick self saucing pudding which has been a favourite for 3 generations in our family. The tamarillos and the carob powder (instead of cocoa powder in the original recipe) is my adaptation and a very well received one.
Ingredients:
6 tamarillos
1/3 cup sugar
3/4 cup water
1 cup self-rising flour
3/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon carob powder
2 ounces butter
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon carob powder
1 cup water, approximately
Directions:
1. Peel and poach whole, 6 tamarillos in 3/4 cup water and 1/3 cup of sugar until fruit just cooked.
2. Mix into a bowl: 1 cup SR flour, 3/4 cup sugar and 1 tbsp carob powder, and add to this 2 ozs (50 gms) of butter melted in 1/2 cup milk and 1 tsp vanilla.
3. Drain the syrup liquid that the tamarillos were poached in into a cup.
4. Place tamarillos on the bottom of a deep cooking dish and spoon over the pudding mix.
5. Sauce topping: Sprinkle 1/3 cup sugar and 1 tbsp carob powder over pudding mix.
6. Make up the syrup liquid to 2 cups by adding hot water and pour over top of the pudding.
7. Cook in a moderate oven 35-45 minutes.
8. Serve with plain ice cream.
