10 Slices of dayold bread
1 One half pound Fruit
5 fl Water

7 ounce Jar cranberry sauce

Cut the crusts off the bread. Prepare and cook the fruit with the water and
sugar to taste. Add the cranberry sauce just before the end of the cooking
period, blend well. Strain the fruit, reserve 5 fl oz/150 ml ofthe juice.
Place a layer of fruit at the bottom of the basin, add a layer ofbread,
then more fiuit with a little juice. Fill the basin like this, ending with
the bread. Place a small saucer and heavy weight over the top of the
pudding and stand for at least 12 hours. Turn out and serve with any fruit
juice left and cream or icecreaxn or custard.

The pudding can be made in the more usual way by lining the basin with
bread, filling the cavity with the fruit and a little juice then covering
the filling with more bread. Add the weight and allow to stand, as left.
