LIME PUDDING MIX RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 13x9-inch pan with cooking spray (do not use dark or nonstick pan). In large bowl, beat cake mix, water, oil, lemon peel and eggs with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour into pan; set aside.
• In medium bowl, beat pudding mix and milk with whisk or spoon 1 to 2 minutes or until smooth. Drizzle pudding over batter to within 1/2 inch of edges of pan.
• Bake 55 to 60 minutes or until deep golden brown and edges pull away from sides of pan. Cool 20 minutes. Top of cake will have irregular surface.
• Spoon warm pudding cake, top side down, into bowls; top with whipped cream. Store covered in refrigerator.

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl, combine the dried fruits and mixed peel. Grate in the lime and orange zest, then squeeze in the citrus juice, cold tea, spices and brandy. Stir and leave overnight for the flavours to develop.
  2. The following day, grate the apple and chop the almonds. Add to the bowl with the sugar and golden syrup.
  3. In a clean bowl, place the rice flour, cornflour, breadcrumbs, baking powder, suet and a pinch of salt. Beat the eggs and egg yolk and stir until you have a smooth mix, then stir into the fruit.
  4. Grease a 1.5-litre pudding basin and pour in the pudding mixture until it’s ⅔ full. Cover the top with a circle of greaseproof paper, then with 2 pieces of foil and secure with string.
  5. Place an upturned saucer into the base of a deep saucepan. Sit the pudding on top of the saucer, and carefully pour in boiling water to come halfway up the pudding dish. Put the lid on and steam for 8 hours, topping up with water as needed – always keep it halfway up the basin.
  6. Once steamed, remove the pudding from the pan, carefully turn it upside down and lift off the basin. Decorate as you like and serve with brandy cream, custard or ice cream.
