DIABETES AWARENESS WEEK

Today's diabetic recipe. SUMMER PUDDING. Serves 8 people.

INGREDIENTS -

1 Slightly stale, good quality sliced white loaf, 225g redcurrants, 225g blackcurrants, 225g whitecurrants (if available), 225g raspberries, 225g blackberries, 225g caster sugar

METHOD

1. Remove the crusts from the bread and leave to stale a little further whilst the fruit is being prepared. 2. Put the red, black and white currants in a pan with the sugar and bring to a bare simmer over a low heat, stirring occasionally. Simmer for 10 mins, then remove from the heat and stir in the raspberries and blackberries. Allow to cool completely. 3. Line a pudding bowl with the slices of bread, trimming them to fit and reserving some for the lid. 4. Stand this bowl in a tray with a rim and fill the well between the bread slices with the liquid-soaked fruit. 5. Cut the reserved slices of bread into triangles and use to form a lid to cover the pudding. Trim any protruding bread from the sides, cover with a circle of greaseproof paper and put a plate on the top which should just fit inside the rim of the pudding bowl. 6. Place tins to the total weight of 1.5kg on the plate and transfer the whole assemblage to the fridge. Keep for up to 3 days, occasionally spooning back any juices that have overflowed into the tray. 7. To serve, remove the weights, greaseproof paper and plate, then carefully run a flexible palate knife down the sides and under the pudding to loosen it from the bowl. 8. Put your serving plate on top of the bowl and gripping firmly, turn over. Tap the base of the bowl with a wooden spoon for luck and remove the bowl. Spoon any accumulated juices from the tray over the top and serve with creme fraiche.
