Instructions: Place sultanas, raisins, currants, orange rind and juice, Guinness and whiskey in bowl, cover and leave overnight.

Grease a medium size pudding steamer (approx. 6 cup plastic bowl) with melted butter.

Fold breadcrumbs through fruit mixture and leave to stand for 5 minutes.

Stir in the eggs, and sift in flour, cinnamon and baking powder.

Spoon into prepared pudding steamer, lower into boiling water and steam for 2 hours.

Leave to stand for 15 minutes before turning out of steamer.

Tip!

Steam again, before serving for a better richer taste.

Pudding can be eaten hot or cold, but tastes delicious hot with whipped cream.

The pudding freezes extremly well!

Sauce:
Place butter, sugar and golden syrup in a heavy based pan, stir until the sugar has dissolved. Add whiskey and stir in the cream. Pour sauce over hot puding and serve with whipped cream or ice-cream
