JAM ROLY-POLY

Steps:

• To make the jam roly-poly, start by greasing and lining a large roasting tin. Combine the lemon juice and jam in a small saucepan and warm gently.
• Mix the flour, suet and salt in a large bowl to combine. Add just enough of the milk to bind the mixture. Dust a work surface with flour and roll out the dough into a rectangular shape about 1cm/½in thick. Brush the dough evenly all over with the warmed jam. Roll the dough up from one of the short ends and wrap in greaseproof paper, then in kitchen foil, making sure it is well sealed. Place in the roasting tin, seam-side down and chill overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 220C/200C Fan/Gas 7. Place the wrapped roly-poly in the oven for 20 minutes, then remove the foil, brush with beaten egg, sprinkle with caster sugar and place back in the oven to bake for another 10 minutes.
• To make the custard, bring the milk and vanilla to scalding point in a saucepan over a low heat. Mix the yolks, cornflour and sugar in a large bowl, then pour the hot milk into the egg mixture, stirring constantly. Remove the vanilla pod and pour the custard back into the pan. Stir continuously over a low heat until thickened and there are no lumps.
• To serve, cut the roly-poly into slices and place in serving bowls. Pour over the custard and garnish with the raspberries and mint.

• Pulse flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a food processor until combined. Add butter, and pulse until pieces are no larger than peas. Add milk; process until a soft dough forms. Place dough on plastic wrap, and pat into a rectangle; wrap in plastic. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place a roasting rack in a large roasting pan. Butter a 21-inch piece of parchment paper; set aside. Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
• Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface. Roll out to slightly thicker than 1/8 inch. Cut into a 15-by-12-inch rectangle. Spread jam over dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Sprinkle chocolate over jam if desired. Fold short sides of dough in by 1 inch. Roll lengthwise to form a cylinder, brushing off excess flour. Pinch ends and along length of cylinder to seal.
• Place seam side down in center of buttered side of parchment. Bring long sides of parchment together at top, and make a 1/2-inch fold. Fold over again, and seal. Tuck ends under. Repeat with foil, folding sides together and twisting ends.
• Place wrapped cylinder on rack in pan. Add enough boiling water to come about 1 1/2 inches up sides of pan (water should not reach pudding). Transfer to oven; bake 1 hour, adding boiling water occasionally to maintain level. Loosely tent with foil; bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center of pudding registers 180 degrees, about 30 minutes.

JAM ROLY-POLY

Steps:

• Put a deep roasting tin onto the bottom shelf of the oven, and make sure that there's another shelf directly above it. Pull the roasting tin out on its shelf, fill two-thirds with boiling water from the kettle, then carefully slide it back in. Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Tear off a large sheet of foil and greaseproof paper (about 30 x 40cm). Sit the greaseproof on top of the foil and butter it.
• Tip butter, flour and vanilla seeds into a food processor; pulse until the butter has disappeared. Tip into a mixing bowl. Stir through the suet, pour in the milk and work together with a cutlery knife until you get a sticky dough. You may need a drop more milk, depending on your flour.
• Tip the dough out onto a floured surface, quickly pat together to smooth, then roll out to a square roughly 25 x 25cm. Spread the jam all over, leaving a gap along one edge, then roll up from the opposite edge. Pinch the jam-free edge into the dough where it meets, and pinch the ends roughly, too. Carefully lift onto the greased paper, join-side down (you might find a flat baking sheet helpful for this), loosely bring up the paper and foil around it, then scrunch together along the edges and ends to seal. The roly-poly will puff quite a bit during cooking so don't wrap it tightly. Lift the parcel directly onto the rack above the tin and cook for 1 hr.
• Let the pudding sit for 5 mins before unwrapping, then carefully open the foil and paper, and thickly slice to serve.
