Re: English Food

I actually don't have a recipe......I never weigh anything......I use fruited non spiced bread, add some extra golden sultanas. chopped dried apricots. cherries......whip up some eggs and sugar in some fresh milk and add an extra yolk to give it more colour and flavour.......let the buttered fruit bread stand in the custard for a while before I put it into the oven....... a sprinkle of nutmeg and then bake in a moderate oven until it feels 'springy'. serve hot with custard or ice cream...and don't be stingy with the servings.
