125g plain flour
3 tablespoons mixed spice
50g chopped nuts

225g soft brown sugar

I medium carrot pealed and grated
Grated rind of I lemon
4 medium eggs
3 tablespoons black treacle
2 tablespoons of milk, or stout or whiskey

Handy Hint

This makes a huge amount. I cut recipe in half or even a third. Test mixture is cooked using skewer. If not then return to microwave for further 2-3 minutes

Method

1. Mix all ingredients well in large bowl
2. Lightly grease 3 x 600 ml (1 pint) pudding basins
3. Divide mixture between bowls and cover with plastic wrap.
4. Cook each on microwave high for 5 minutes and leave to stand for further 5 mins.

We prefer this to the normal stodgy Christmas pud. It has loads of flavour and you can taste ingredients. If not sure why not try it beforehand?
