Cab's Jam Roly Poly
Ingredients
- 500g self raising flour
- 250g suet
- a good pinch of salt
- around 300ml cold water
- Best part of a jar of home-made raspberry jam
Recipe
- Mix the salt, flour and suet and slowly work in the water to form a workable dough
- Knead a little and roll it out to 1.5cm thick, or to a size that will be rolled into a cylinder to fit in a teatowel
- Get a nice clean teatowel that has been washed many times so it is dye fast and wet it
- Smear jam on the dough, enough to give a thick covering, leaving say 2cm around the outside
- Fold the outside edge to keep the jam in place and roll up the dough
- Wet the end and edges to seal it and fold in the jam as best as you can
- Roll it in the teatowel, make a cracker by tying the ends with string and simmer it gently, almost covered in water for 3 hours
Comments
