PEGASUS POST<br />
in<br />
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas<br />
Christmas is a great time for passing down recipes that are tried and true becoming<br />
traditional family favourites. The owner of this recipe says her mum used to make<br />
the pudding on Christmas Eve and would take the bowl and wooden spoon around<br />
everyone in the house to stir the mixture and make a wish.<br />

• 1 ½ tbsp butter<br />

check regularly to make sure<br />
the water has boiled dry. Top<br />
up carefully with extra water if<br />
required.<br />
• Serve with heaps of Chantilly<br />
