Recipe - Date And Carrot Pudding

2 cup Flour
3 teaspoon Baking powder
One half cup Sugar
One half cup Finely grated carrot
2 teaspoon Grated orange rind
1 cup Chopped dates
3 Eggs
One half cup Fresh orange juice

ORANGE CARMEL SAUCE
1 cup Brown sugar
One fourth cup Water
One half cup Orange juice
1 tablespoon Custard powder

Sift flour and baking powder into a bowl. Add sugar, carrot, orange rind,
and dates. Mix together. Beat eggs in a bowl until pale and creamy. Add
orange juice and beat to combine. Stir orange mixture into flour mixture
and stir to combine. Pour into a wellgreased square baking dish. Bake at
350 F (or 180 C depending on where you live) for 35 to 40 minutes until
baked through and golden brown. Serve with Orange Carmel Sauce.

Orange Carmel Sauce: Place brown sugar and water in a saucepan. Bring to a
boil for 3 minutes. Mix orange juice and custard powder together. Pour into
carmel amd bring back to a boil.

Notes: If you didn't have custard powder on your shelf, I don't see why you
couldn't substitute cornstarch. (we call it cornflour)
