Method

  1. Butter a small microwave-proof pudding basin. In a separate bowl, rub the butter into the flour and baking powder, then stir in the sugar and sultanas. Gradually add the eggs and milk to make a wet cake mixture.
  2. Spoon into the basin and make a deep hollow in the centre with the back of the spoon. Cover the basin with cling film, pierce with the tip of a knife and microwave on High for 4½-5 mins until well risen and firm to the touch.
  3. Carefully turn the pud out onto a plate and spoon over a generous amount of syrup. Slice and serve with custard.

    made this tonight. it is typical of a microwave cake/pudding. they get rather dry and not very interesting! we're going to try it with syrup and custard tomorrow rather than ice cream like tonight, liven it up a bit!

    Incredibly easy to make, but went dry very quickly and lacked any real flavour.
