Ingredients

  • 200 ml (7 fl oz) semi-skimmed milk
  • 200 g (7 oz) white breadcrumbs.
  • 20 g (3/4 oz) unsalted butter, softened and diced.
  • grated zest of 1 lemon
  • 125 g (4 1/2 oz) raspberries
  • 85 g (3 oz) caster sugar

  • sifted icing sugar to dust
  • Raspberry sauce
  • 125 g (4 1/2 oz) raspberries
  • 1 tbsp icing sugar, sifted

 

 

 

Method

1.   Preheat the oven to 140°C (275°F, gas mark 1). Heat the milk until scalding hot, but not  
     quite boiling. Put the breadcrumbs into a large, heatproof bowl and pour over the hot milk.
     Stir in the butter and lemon zest, then leave to cool for 10-15 minutes or until the crumbs
     have absorbed the milk.
2.   Meanwhile, put the raspberries in a mixing bowl. Sprinkle over 30 g (1 oz) of the caster   
     sugar and mash with a fork to make a thick, rough mixture. Spread over the bottom of a  
     lightly buttered 1.2 litre (2 pint) baking dish.
3.   Stir the egg yolks into the cooled breadcrumb mixture. Put the 3 egg whites into a clean bowl
     and whisk until stiff peaks form, then whisk in the remaining 55 g (2 oz) caster sugar. With  
     a large metal spoon, gently fold the egg whites into the breadcrumb mixture.
4.   Spoon the breadcrumb mixture on top of the raspberries. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the
     pudding is set and lightly golden.
5.   Meanwhile, make the sauce. Purée the raspberries by pressing them through a nylon sieve. Stir
     in the icing sugar, then pour into a serving jug.
6.   Remove the pudding from the oven and leave to cool slightly, then dust the top with icing
     sugar. Serve warm, with the raspberry sauce.
