The
KENTISH WELL PUDDING
Sieve the flour and salt together. Add sugar. Add suet and 1 teaspoon
grated lemon rind Add enough water to make a dough. Roll out on a
floured board.
Butter a 2 pint pudding basin well and line with crust, leaving
a third for the lid. Sprinkle the remaining rind in to the bottom
of the basin.
Prick the lemon with a darning needle and then press the cloves into
it. Pat butter around the lemon then roll it in sugar. Put the coated
lemon in the basin, then pack currants around it with any left-over
butter and sugar. Dampen the edges of the pudding and fit the lid
on, sealing well.
Cover loosely with buttered kitchen foil and tie down with string.
Steam for 3-3.5 hours (or microwave)
When cut, the delicious buttery pond flows out.
