ingredients & directions

Ingredients:
125 grams slices whole meal bread, crusts removed
750 grams fresh berries (blackberries, strawberries, blackcurrants, cranberries, raspberries etc.)
1-2 teaspoons honey
sprig of mint or fruit slices

Directions:

Line a 1 liter pudding basin with the bread slices, trimming them as necessary to fit the bottom and sides. Reserve 1-2 sliced for the top.
Put the washed fruit in a saucepan with 250 ml water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for about 5 minutes, until soft but not mushy. Cool a little and add honey to taste.
Reserve 3 tablespoons of the juice from the cooked fruit. Pour the remainder of the juice and cooked fruit into the pudding basin. Top with the remaining bread.
Place a saucer over the pudding basin and place 1lb weight on top. Chill for at least 5 hours before serving.
Turn out the pudding on to a plate. If any patches of bread have not been color by the fruit, use a pastry brush to coat with the reserved juice. Decorate with a sprig of mint or a slice of fruit, and serve.
