Figgy Pudding

Step 1: Prep the bowl & dried fruit

Pudding base

  • Orange juice
    1/2 orange
  • Orange zest
    1/2 orange
  • Butter
    for greasing

Fruit add-ins & spices

  • Mixed dried fruit
    450 g
  • Medjool dates, chopped
    100 g
  • Candied ginger, chopped
    50 g
  • Walnuts, chopped
    40 g

Grease a heat safe bowl with butter to hold & cook the pudding in.

  • It should be a small, glass pyrex heat safe bowl or a metal bowl, small in size. This will shape the pudding into that half cannonball form.

Remove pits from the dates. Roughly chop the dried fruit, dates, and candied ginger and place in a large mixing bowl. Finely grate in the orange zest, then squeeze in the juice.
