Ingredients:

225g suet
3 eggs
juice and grated zest of two lemons
90g demerara sugar
290g finely-chopped breadcrumbs
generous pinch of salt
butter to grease the bowl

For the sauce

200ml Madeira wine
60g butter
100g sugar

Method:

First of all mix the dry ingredients (suet, salt and breadcrumbs) together, then add the grated lemon zest and the sugar. Grease the base and sides of a 750ml pudding basin with the butter and beat together the eggs and the lemon juice. Add this to the dry ingredients and fold in well.

Pour this batter into the prepared pudding basin, secure a lid over the top and cover with foil. Place the bowl in a large saucepan, add boiling water to about half-way up the bowl, add a lid on the saucepan and boil for about three hours (make sure it does not boil dry). To make the sauce melt the butter in a pan, add the sugar and the Madeira. Warm until hot, but do not boil. Pour the sauce over the pudding and serve immediately.
