Not a soft pudding result, but satisfying nonetheless. More like shortbread and jam, which was great anyway. Needs cream or custard though!

This is not the way I remember the "good" oldR-P Pudden being made; it seems a very much faster method. I think we rolled it up in a special cloth and boiled it for hours! We had either cold clotted cream or custard, whichever was in fashion (available) at the time.

I'm sure all the methods have stood the test of time and are equally delicious - and wonderfully fattening.
