Figgy-Dowdy

Ingredients:

2 lbs plain flour
½ lb suet
½ cup of granulated sugar
1 cup of raisins
1 cup of currants
2 teaspoons or dry ginger
1 teaspoon dried mixed spice


Method:

Serves 10-12

Mix dry ingredients together. Add ¼ cup rum and ¾ cup water. Mix to form a dough.

Divide into eight portions and tie in a well floured muslin cloth. Place in a large pot with boiling water to cover. Cover, bring to a boil and cook rapidly for 3 hours (you may need to replenish the water as it cooks).

Remove the pudding from the pot, untie it, and turn out into a serving dish. Slice into thin wedges.
