One of my all-time favourites, a dish we put together five or six years ago and everybody loves it. A real north country dish.

Matthew Fort of the Guardian made it his ‘Dish of the Year’, describing it as “A brilliant addition to the roll of honour of British puddings, tarty, tasty, spicey, racy and plum duff delicious! ” Served at
