Spotted Dick

8 ozs self raising flour
pinch salt
4 ozs butter
2 rounded Tbs castor sugar
6 ozs currants
2 eggs
a little milk

Sift the flour with the salt into a bowl, rub in butter and then
stir in the sugar and currants.  Whisk the eggs and stir into the
mixture and stir until smooth with a wooden spoon, adding milk, if
necessary, to give a dropping consistency.  Turn into a well-greased
basin, cover with pleated, buttered grease proof paper and foil,
tie securely and steam 1 1/2 - 2 hours.  Serve with custard.
