there's nothing I love better!

Why did they even change the name in the first place?

Hahahaha, I want the recipe for THAT!

Oh Gatsby! I bet you know the recipe for that.

Spotted Dick

2 oz plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 teaspoon mixed spice
pinch of salt
2 oz shredded suet
1 oz white or brown sugar
4 oz currants
2 oz fresh breadcrumbs
1 egg, beaten
4-5 tbsp milk

Butter a 1.5 pint pudding basin. Sift the flour, baking powder, spice and salt into a mixing bowl and mix in the suet, sugar, fruit and bread- crumbs. Stir in the egg and sufficient milk to produce a soft consistency that drops off the spoon in 5 seconds.

Turn the mixture into the pudding basin, which should be two-thirds full. Cover with greased foil or a snap-on lid (the plastic container from a 2 lb Christmas pudding is worth saving for this purpose.) Steam for 2 to 2.5 hours. When cooked, remove the cover and allow the pudding to shrink slightly, then cover the basin with a hot serving plate, hold it firmly and invert. Lift off the basin to leave the pudding on the plate.

Serve hot with custard.

I knew you'd have the recipe.

JOJ, I googled it.

I generally try to stay far away from Spotted Dick. Bad news.

I googled it as well. omg that sounds positively revolting. It isn't the name that will keep me from asking for it, it is the ingredients
