Here’s how to steam a pudding:

  • Put 3-4 inches of water to start in a large pot and place it on the stove over medium heat.
  • Place a metal or heat-proof dish upside down in the bottom of the pot. This will act as a stand to keep the pudding off the bottom of the pot.
  • Grease a heat-proof pudding basin with butter or cooking spray.
  • Fill the pudding basin with the prepared Christmas pudding mixture and smooth the top.
  • Cover the pudding basin with a layer of buttered parchment paper or aluminum foil, making sure to create a pleat in the center to allow for expansion.
  • Place the pudding basin on top of the metal stand in the pot of simmering water, making sure that the water level comes up about halfway up the side of the pudding basin.
  • Cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid and simmer the pudding for 2-4 hours (Follow recipe suggestion), checking the water level occasionally and topping up with boiling water as needed.
  • Once the pudding is cooked, carefully remove it from the pot using oven mitts or a thick towel.
  • Let the pudding cool for a few minutes before turning it out onto a serving dish.
