Tip

• When I purchased the products at ALDI the puddings were much better then the brands I purchased at Coles and Woolworth's. This included the flour and particularly the prunes • Make sure the Sherry is reasonable quality as you don’t want to waste these expensive ingredients and use a cheap Sherry as it ruins the taste.  • Make sure when steaming the pudding that they don’t touch the bottom of the saucepan and have water around them at all times.  • Halving and doubling ingredients never seemed to be successful. Make up the mix first then add them together to make a larger pudding.  • Pudding is cooked when a skewer is inserted and removed cleanly.  • Don’t over cook the pudding. If anything it is best being cooked 90% and re-steaming for an hour or two on the day you serve it.  • Once cooled, keep in the fridge wrapped in grease proof baking paper then cover with a damp tea towel turning daily as the pudding will seep and turning will keep the texture even.  • Eat within 2-3 weeks and remember there are no preservatives so it wont keep like a store purchased one

Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 5 image
    Recipe is created for
    TM 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!
