Spotted Dick Pudding

Before you wrap the Spotted Dick, check that the tea towel or cloth has no residual smell of washing detergent etc. If so, discard and use a fresh cloth then soak the clean tea towel or cloth napkin in boiling water for a few minutes, squeeze to remove excess water.

Wrap the suet roll in the napkin twisting at each end at securing with kitchen string.

Steam the roll for 2 hours in a steamer. Alternatively, wrap the suet roll in foil and bake in a hot oven (200ºC/400ºF/Gas 6) for 1 hour 30 mins.
