Did they have square plates in your Borstal ?

I was referring to the dessert spoon

Please forgive me, but I feel that you should have been more specific. My understanding is that one spoon suits all of a prisoner's needs and that differentiation into types is unnecessary.

I apologise and stand corrected .

That looks fkin delicious.

50 posts...Hehehehehehe!

Dump her in the kid's cartoon lounge and take your EU Passport holding ass into town for some proper beer and imported Czech slagdogs.

I can sit here, drink, eat and play on the internet til my hearts content for free too

Over the space of a couple of years of ordering Mcdonalds/KFC/Pizza we managed to literally fill a big plastic bag full to the top. Must have been thousands in there... Ketchup, Chilli sauce, little packs of chilli & oregano.

We gave it to a small road side restaurant, I doubt they will need to buy any sauce for the next few years!

We are cooking this now. The ingredients are :

1/2 small loaf of bread ( approx 240 g ), crusts cut off and sliced,
butter to cover both sides of slices liberally,
two eggs
3 large spoons of sugar ( see pics for spoon size ) whisked into eggs
Just over a pint of milk added to the sugar/eggs mix and stirred well.
sultanas



Sprinkle sultanas over the base of the dish, cover them with triangular slices of double buttered bread. Sprinkle more sultanas over the bread in the centre of the bowl and cover them with the remainder of the bread slices.





Pour the milk/eggs/sugar mixture over the bread and sultanas.




Cover the dish with clingfilm ( saran wrap ) and press down so as to make the bread absorb the liquid. Then, place some weights on the film, we use two dishes, and place the bowl in a fridge for twenty minutes.





Remove the clingfilm and bake at Gas Mark 4, 180 degrees for approx 80 minutes until the top of the pudding is brown. Depending on the time in the oven the juice content of the pudding will vary. We prefer it very moist, others might prefer to bake it longer and serve it with custard. Our mixture is very sweet on account of the amount of sugar and sultanas used. These should be varied according to taste. The finished product will appear here when it is cooked.

Looks nice mate , i had some pork and cranberry with stuffing sausage rolls (very festive ) from sainsbury very nice they were too and only 50 pence each .
ps i seem to be getting quite severe heartburn now

No chance. Nice big bowls for commoners like me. I am going to eat an enormous portion as there are just the two of us. So, no room for a typical dinner tonight and I'll be hitting the red wine and port/Stilton later if I get peckish. Pudding shouldn't be long now.

Blimey Xmas has come early in South Wales

Looking forward to it , i would post some pics of the mess the wife is cooking up in her cauldron but i haven't put up enough posts.

Interesting to see you have a table protector on there ,, we have mats for hot plates and dripping cups , but my wife after over 4 years still has no concept of what they are for , consequently I put the mats out and she puts her cup down beside it on the table top ,,, bless her .

Are you sure ?? 37 posts I reckon you could by now

Here it is ! Golden, could have left it longer but like it very moist.



Forgot to say that you should remove it from the oven ten minutes before the end of the cooking time and sprinkle the crust with sugar before returning it to the oven to finish cooking.
