- Start the preparation the day before cooking.
Check dried fruit for pips and stalks.
Place dried fruit, lemon rind, grated carrot and marmalade in a bowl and soak in brandy/sherry overnight. - NEXT DAY
2. Grease a pudding basin and line base with baking paper. Cut 2 strips of baking paper 2.5cm wide and 50cm long and place on opposite sides of the basin - these strips will help to loosen cooked pudding from basin. Set aside.
Place bread torn into peices into Thermomix bowl and blitz 15 seconds/Sp6 or until mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Set aside.
Add flour, spices and salt to Thermomix bowl and mix 20-30 sec/Sp5. Add breadcrumbs to flour mixture and mix 2-3 sec/Sp5.Set aside.

Boil for 6 hours on stove or alternatively place pudding mixture into dariole moulds, cover with a round of baking paper and cover moulds with foil and place in varoma dish.

Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!
