hi foodtube carry on here it’s Christmas
and what screams Christmas better than a
good old-fashioned Christmas pudding I’m
gonna show you how to make a gluten-free
Christmas pudding so everyone can tuck
in because why should you miss out on
this Christmas classic just because you
can’t eat gluten it’s rich and sweet
with beautiful dried fruits plumped up
with festive brandy you can’t beat it
Christmas is all about family it’s all
about everyone coming together and in
our house of good Christmas pudding is
essential this recipe will serve about
10 to 12 people let’s get on with it
this recipe actually started yesterday I
mixed some currants sour cherries
raisins dates and mixed peel in a bowl
it doesn’t matter what fruit you use as
long as there’s 460 grams or 16 ounces
in total the zest and juice of one lime
and half an orange 75 mils of cold Smt
and then add two and a half tablespoons
of brandy half a teaspoon of mixed spice
and a quarter of a teaspoon of ground
cinnamon mix it all together and put to
one side I left mine overnight to steep
and soak up all those lovely flavors and
this is what I’m left with today see how
the fruits gonna plump and juicy looking
so I’m gonna get a nice big bowl and
then I’m gonna put all my throw in to
that I’m gonna add a hundred and 70
grams of soft dark brown sugar 50 grams
of chopped almonds lovely a nice
tablespoon of golden syrup a cooking
Apple we’re gonna grate it straight in
getting and everything but I’m only
gonna use hot give this a nice quick mix
and then I need 110 grams of gluten-free
bread crumbs this is slightly stale
gluten-free bread whizzed up in a food
processor
I need 110 grams of gluten free suet it
is readily available with most health
food shops traditional suet often
contains wheat flour which is no good
for those with a gluten intolerance I’m
adding 25 grams of rice flour which is a
common substitute for wheat flour in
gluten-free recipes and then 25 grams of
corn
flour or cornstarch a teaspoon of
gluten-free baking powder to medium to
large free-range eggs and one extra yolk
and we mix that in as well it smells
amazing right
so we’ve got our mix all nice and ready
here I have a 1.5 liter pudding basin
which I have liberally least with some
butter it is Christmas after all this
should fill the basin two-thirds of the
way up because it will grow a little bit
so we’re leveling that off on top of
this I want to add a cartouche which is
basically a posh way of saying a circle
of greaseproof paper nice and snug and
then I’m gonna cover this with two
layers of foil I’m gonna tie it up yeah
a nice little Christmas present this
might be a little bit difficult to take
out of a hot pan like that so what we’re
gonna do is we’re gonna use another
piece of string and we’re gonna make a
little safe handle so there you have it
my friends a Christmas pudding ready for
steaming and if you have a look in this
pot I’ve got an upside-down sorcerer I’m
gonna place pudding on top of that
saucer we don’t want to put the bottom
of the basin on to the bottom of the pan
because it’s gonna be cooking for at
least eight hours and over that period
of time on the direct heat it will burn
your pudding which will make it go
bitter it won’t taste very nice and all
of that effort will be a complete waste
so don’t forget the sauce up in the
bottom of the pan now do this pan I’m
gonna add some boiling water to halfway
up the basin we want to get the lid on
straight away and we want to bring it to
a boil now once it’s boiling turn it
down and leave it to simmer for eight
hours now don’t think you’re getting off
lightly because you’re not you can’t
just leave it because the water will
eventually boil dry that means no
that means no cooking that means no
pudding everybody’s Christmas is ruined
and it’s all your fault so what you need
to do is come back every hour and a half
and just make sure that the water is
always half way up the basin and you’ll
put in will be perfect it’s been eight
hours this is so exciting and be careful
friends because it is very hot Ready
Steady Christmas pudding look at that I
really really really really wish that
you guys could smell this because it
smells so good it’s actually making my
mouth water lovely platter on-the-go and
quick and confident over you go look at
that it’s ready for the fun part the
decoration it’s so worth the effort to
make this rich and totally delicious it
wouldn’t be Christmas without one of
these on the table I’ve decorated it
with a little bit of cream it’s a little
bit naughty but it is Christmas after
all I’m sure you’re allowed to have a
