Required : Six ounces of cake and biscuit crumbs. Three eggs.

Two tablespoonfuls of jam or marmalade. Two ounces of sugar. Half a grated nutmeg. About one and a half gills of milk.

Grease well a mould or pudding-basin.

Mix together the crumbs, sugar, and nutmeg.

Beat up the eggs with the milk and jam.

Mix the dry and moist ingredients together.

More milk may be needed if the crumbs are very dry, or the eggs very small. It must pour thickly from a spoon. Put the mixture into a basin and cover it with greased paper, then steam it for two hours. Turn it out carefully and serve with a good sweet sauce.
