    • We tried this inaugural recipe from this site last night for supper in front of the TV.It did take a couple of minutes more but hot with cornish ice cream and a splash of double cream. Yummy!

    • The recipe says cook for 6 hours - not 6 minutes. I nearly deleted it

    • Hi Debz Glad it worked well and you enjoyed it! Yes, it does depend upon the microwave power - its better to undercook and add a little more time gradually - if you over cook it you will be using it as a tennis ball!

    Comfort food at its best! This is a far quicker version of the steamed pudding.

     

    This was another one of my prison collection - nothing like a steamed pudding to bring a smile to a hungry man's face! Read More
