Welsh Amber Pudding

Welsh Amber Pudding


1. FOR SHORTCRUST PASTRY: Sieve the flour and salt together into a bowl.

2. Cut the butter (or if using the lard/butter combo) ½ inch (1.5 cm) cubes and rub lightly into flour, lifting the mixture to add air, until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.

3. Make a well in the middle of the mixture and stir in enough water using a knife, until a soft but not sticky pastry is formed.

4. Cover tightly and allow to rest in a fridge for 15 - 30 minutes.

5. Roll out the pastry and use to line a 7 inch (15 cm) tart tin. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C or mark 6) for 10 -15 minutes until set.

6. Beat together the eggs, egg yolks, sugar, grated lemon rind and marmalade. Whisk in the melted butter.

7. Pour the egg mixture into the pastry and bake at 375°F (190°C or mark 5) for a further 20 minutes. Serve warm from the oven or allow to cool and serve that way too.
