A simple concoction of culinary indulgence to close off a meal…
I’m curious, was this dessert also known in Australia, or was it predominantly an NZ thing? |

I do remember having this when I was kid growing up in 60's to 70's, with everything being fast food with the microwave these days I cannot see the younger generation embracing this practice.

It, along with bread and butter pudding and rice pudding were staple in our house in the 50s.

Rice pudding. On the farm my Nan used to make it in the old Metters oven, yum.

No, a proper Christmas pudding is boiled in a cloth and is much firmer, this one is simply cooked in a double boiler and is a soft, crumbly, sticky, cakelike delight. It’s not turned out, but scooped from the basin to serve.
You make the dough/batter, place in a basin, pour prepared hot syrup over the top and sit in your pot of water already at a rolling boil. Cover with a vented lid and check after <30 minutes - then estimate your remaining cook time. |
