This recipe has been tried and tested by my friends, family and work mates. They never expect it to work as traditional dumpling take hours of steaming. This takes about 10 minutes. Tastes authentic or I would not use it, or be asked for copies of it, so often. Very quick and easy. A cheats delight.

Time 10m

Yield 1 large dumpling

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 pint water
1 tablespoon mixed spice
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 lb mixed fruit
4 ounces white sugar
1/2 lb margarine or 1/2 lb butter
1 tablespoon black treacle
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 lb plain flour
1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda

Steps:

  • Into a heavy pan place the following ingredients; water, spices, fruit, sugar, butter and treacle.
  • Bring to a boil and simmer for 1 minute only; remove from the heat.
  • Stir the eggs, flour, and bicarbonate of soda into the mixture. It will appear to start cooking the mixture. Do not worry.
  • Put mixture into pudding basins which have been lined generously with cling wrap. Wrap should flap over the sides of the basin; tap to get rid of air pockets.
  • Place into the microwave for about 7 minutes. Do not cover the top with the cling wrap.
  • Each microwave is different and, depending on size and power, you will have to use your own judgement.
  • They are ready when a skewer comes out clean and feels firm on top.
  • Now it's up to you. Play around with the sizes and make individual ones (approximately 2 or 3 minutes) or play about with the fillings.

MICROWAVE CLOOTIE DUMPLING

I used to make the traditional version of this but it takes so long to make and this is made in a flash. My Grandmother always made it the old way in a cloth steamed for hours then dried out in front of the fire to form a skin we got one every year for our birthday rather than a cake and we loved it, it was actually the highlight of the day. This one is a bit of a cheat but it's very good.
