Cloutie Dumpling
The Cloutie Dumpling gets its name from the "clout" or cloth in which it was traditionally boiled.
Ingredients: 4 oz shredded margarine 8 oz (2½ cups) flour 4 oz oatmeal 3 oz sugar Rounded teaspoon baking powder 8 oz mixed currants/sultanas/chopped raisins One or 1½ teaspoon each of ground cinnamon and mixed spice One teaspoon golden syrup 2 eggs, beaten 3/4 tablespoons buttermilk
Method: Using a large mixing bowl sift the flour and rub in the margarine. Add all the other dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon. Make a well in the centre and add the syrup and eggs and mix well. Add enough buttermilk to make a soft but firm batter.
The traditional way of cooking dumpling is in a cloth. Cover with boiling water and cook for 2½ to 3 hours
