Steak and Kidney Pudding

Leave a reply

1½-2 pounds steak
½ pound calf’s kidney
2 tablespoons flour
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 ounces freshly grated or packaged suet
12 ounces self-raising flour
Dripping
4 tablespoons finely chopped shallot or onion
¼ pint rich beef stock
2-4 tablespoons port wine (optional)

Cut steak and kidney into rather small pieces, and shake well in a bowl containing flour and ¼ level teaspoon each salt and freshly ground pepper, until all the pieces are well coated.

Combine finely grated suet with self-raising flour, adding pepper and salt, to taste, to make a light suet crust.

Grease a pudding basin with dripping, line it with the crust and put in the seasoned meat and finely chopped shallot or onion. Combine stock and port wine (if desired), and fill up the basin with this mixture to near the top, adding a little water if necessary. Put on the pastry lid, making sure the edges are well sealed to keep in the steam. Cover the whole pudding with a floured cloth and simmer or steam 3 to 4 hours. The crust should be rather damp. Serves 4 to 6.
