Another Cake... FUN!

I came home on Thursday night and my flatmate, Craig was slaving away in the kitchen cooking up this fun treat for me! It's called a 'clootie dumpling' and it took a lot of work to make. You have to put the batter into a scalding hot, floured cloth, tie it up and boil it for 3 1/2 hours before putting it in the oven for 20 minutes! You can eat it hot, cold, with custard, fried with bacon... basically however you want! I tried it fried with bacon and it was quite grand! I think it weighs at least 10lbs!! Hooray to birthday's!
