Instructies

Pudding Preparation:

Combine raisins, sultanas, self-raising flour, grated butter, breadcrumbs, muscovado sugar, chopped mixed nuts, ground cinnamon, and ground mixed spice in a mixing bowl.
Stir in milk and the egg until well combined.
Grease a 1.5-litre pudding bowl with butter and pour the pudding mixture into it.

Steaming:

Cover the pudding with a double layer of buttered foil, making a pleat in the center to allow the pudding to rise.
Tie the foil securely with string.
Place the pudding in a steamer or a large pan with simmering water, coming halfway up the sides of the bowl.
Steam, covered with a lid, for 2.5 hours.
Check the water level during cooking and top up if necessary.

Serving:

If serving immediately, unwrap and invert the pudding onto a deep plate.

Butterscotch Drizzle:

In a pan, combine butter, light muscovado sugar, double cream, and vanilla extract.
Bring slowly to a boil, stirring constantly.
Allow to bubble away for 2-3 minutes until the sauce is pale caramel in color and slightly thickened.
Remove from heat.

Finishing Touch:

Pour the warm butterscotch sauce over the pudding.
Decorate with whole mixed nuts.

Serve and Enjoy:

Slice the Nutty Spice Delight Pudding and serve with an extra drizzle of butterscotch sauce.
