Steamed Jam Pudding - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup strawberry jam (or any other jam of choice)
60 g butter
1/2 cup caster sugar
1 egg
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup milk

Preparation

Grease a pudding bowl. Spread the jam in the base of the bowl.
Cream the butter and the sugar.
Add the egg beaten well and mix until smooth.
Sift the flour and the baking powder and add it inches.
Stir in the milk too and mix well. Pour this mixture gently over the jam in the bowl.
Cover and seal the bowl with foil and steam in pan filled with 2 cups of boiling water for an hour.
Check periodically to see that the water at the base has not dried up and top with boiling water if required.
(I use my pressure cooker and the containers it comes with and simmer for 45 minutes after the first whistle).
Run a knife along the edge of the pudding and invert into serving platter.
