Figgy 'obbin

8 oz suet
raisins
1 lb flour
milk
1 tsp salt
sugar
2 tsp baking powder

Mix together the suet, flour, salt and baking powder. Add water gradually, to form a dry elastic dough. Knead lightly, then roll out to about 1/2" thick. Sprinkle on two handfuls of raisins, roll them in lightly with a rolling pin. Fold up, like a jam suet pudding, sealing the ends. Criss-cross the top with a knife, brush with milk and sprinkle with sugar.

Bake at 350F for about 30 minutes. Serve hot.


This is a traditional Cornish recipe. The "figs" refer to the Cornish common name for raisins.
