50g Butter
350g plain flour 3 tsp Baking powder 140g shredded suet 85g caster sugar 115g currants finely grated zest and juice of 2 Lemons 75ml Milk 75ml whipping cream custard or clotted cream, to serve -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Method 1. Soften half the butter and use to grease a 1.4 litre pudding basin. 2. Combine the flour, baking powder, suet, sugar and currants in a large bowl, mixing well. 3. Melt the remaining butter and stir into the flour mixture. 4. Stir in the lemon juice and zest. 5. Combine the milk and cream in a small jug. Slowly stir enough into the mixture to bring it to a dropping consistency. 6. Pour the mixture into the pudding basin. Cover with a double layer of greaseproof paper (make a pleat in the middle to allow for expansion), tied in place with string. 7. Place the basin in a steamer basket set over boiling water. Cover and steam for about 1 - 1 1/2 hours until cooked. Check the water level now and again to make sure it doesn't burn dry. 8. Serve with custard or, if you're feeling wicked, a big dollop of clotted cream. Comments & Ratings |
