  • 4 ounces margarine
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 8 ounces self-raising flour
  • hot custard sauce or castor sugar (for serving)(optional)

Instructions

1

Step 1

Have ready a sheet of foil or a double thickness of greaseproof paper brushed with melted margarine.

2

Step 2

Make the pudding crust: Sieve the flour and the salt. Rub in the margarine. Add the sugar and sultanas. Mix in the water to make a soft dough.

Step 3

Turn out the dough onto a floured board and form it into a roll. Alternatively, for a pudding basin, put the mixture into a medium-sized (1.5 pint) pudding basin instead of forming a roll.

Step 4

If forming a roll, wrap it loosely but securely in the prepared greaseproof paper or foil. Tie or seal the ends.

5

Step 5

Place the pudding (either the wrapped roll or the pudding in its basin) in the steamer and cover tightly.

1.5 to 2 hours
