      Mark you, I would walk a long way to get my teeth into a classy Christmas pud. All fruit and nuts with the minimum of flour and suet to bind then together. Mature it for 11 plus months. Then tenderly bring it into the kitchen and wash its little botty with brandy. Present in a flaming sea of brandy and serve with a quite disgracefully large helping of brandy butter. Eat joyously in candlelight. 

      In 12 months you will have recovered enough to do it again.

    stupid question....do you add beetroot grated raw like in carrot cake, or cook it first? Had a scrummy chocolate and beetroot cake the other day but the lady couldn't tell me what recipe and method her daughter had used to make it....I only know I would have LOVED a second slice of it!!!!

    ps: favourite pudding has to be oven baked rice pudding with lots of nutmeg....yummy!!
