ah hello you've caught me having five minutes I'm about to start making bacon and onion roly-poly puddin it's a cheap savory put in an ideal for the servants Hall here at orderly end house and it's the kind of dish that I grew up eating it's easy you just put it in a pot and leave it at the back of the range for this recipe you will need flour beef suet [Music] a generous pinch of salt mushrooms bacon [Music] a small onion some cold water and lard for frying first a simple robust pastry that is easy to make without any fuss mix the flour with the suet and add a good pinch of salt then add water a little at a time to make a stiff but not too sticky paste [Music] then set it aside somewhere cool now it's time for the filling you can put almost anything in sausage meat stuffing filling is really nice Mary Ann has already prepared my ingredients she's chop the mushrooms the bacon and the onions so I'll just mix them up roll out the pastry into a rectangle make sure you use plenty of flour to stop it from sticking make sure that it's smaller than the width of your pan by a couple of inches it doesn't matter how it looks as this is for the servants but I will make sure there's plenty of filling spread it out but not quite to the edges roll out the pudding tightly it's useful to have a bowl of water handy as you can use the water to seal all the edges as with all puddings cooked in a cloth the wrapping is very important make sure for this one you put plenty of flour on the cloth naturally this is a savory roly-poly pudding but you could use fruit puree or Jam some people call this shirtsleeve put in because they make it in old shirt sleeves I've even heard people call it dead man's leg now the pudding needs to go into a pan of boiling water put the pudding in a pan of boiling water and leave it there for about an hour and a half it doesn't matter if it's a little longer than that just make sure it kept at a rolling boil [Music] you could surf the put in hot straightaway but here at oddly end house we servants like it fried so I've let this cool and now it's time to unwrap it and now I'm going to fry it fry each slice lightly on both sides you can fry in butter or for a really delicious taste use lard mmm smells divine and there you have it roly-poly pudding [Music]
