Nutty Chestnut Pudding
A fantastic alternative to the Turkey for vegetarians at Christmas and is amazingly popular with staunch meat-eaters too. Great made in the mini pudding bowls too - just steam for 45 mins instead.
4 oz Marge
4oz Soya Flour (or plain flour)
4 oz Ground Almonds
4 Tbsp Soy Sauce
3 tbsps chopped fresh herbs
4 oz Chestnut Purée
3/4lb Chopped Walnuts
Mix all ingredients together
Grease a 2lb pudding bowl and mix to bowl. Make a fold in a sheet of baking parchment and lay over top of bowl. Fix a string around rim of bowl holding the parchment securely and leaving enough tail to make a handle.
Steam for 2 hours - this is best done in a slow-cooker!
Serve with a Red Wine and Sage Sauce
