    2. Jak Daniels
    3. I've decided to send the recipe to the whole list - everyone seems to want a copy of it - so here it is. Plus I missed out an important ingrediant when I sent it out - I forgot the milk ! Opps. No wonder I can't cook! Bread & Butter Pudding 3-4 thin slices of bread and butter 50g (2oz) currants or sultanas (raisins are fine, but soak them in water for about 1/2 an hour to make them plump) 15ml (2 tablespoons) caster sugar (normal sugar is fine - we use caster sugar in baking that's all) 3/4 pint of milk 2 eggs ground nutmeg Cut the bread and butter into strips and arrange, buttered side up, in layers in a greased ovenproof dish. Sprinkling the layers with the fruit and sugar. Heat the milk, but do not allow it to boil. Whisk the eggs lightly and pour the milk on to them, stiring all the time. Strain the mixture over the bread, sprinkle some nutmeg on top and let the pudding stand for 1/2 hour. Bake in the oven at 180 C (150 C) or gas mark 4 for 30-40 minutes, until set and lightly browned. Eat while hot with lashing of hot creamy custard. Comfort food or what :)! If anyone would like some Custard Powder, please let me know and I'll post a packet of it to you. Regards and happy eating Jak
