highfences, here are some recipes from the former Trademe Cooks.
"Heres one I got off here ages ago - quick, easy and yummy. Mix together 3/4 cup self raising flour, 1/3 cup sugar and a pinch of salt. Add 2 beaten eggs, 1/4 cup of milk and 100g of melted butter. Mix well. In a buttered pudding bowl pour 1/2 cup of either golden syrup, lemon butter or jam and top with the batter mixture. Microwave on high for 5 - 10 mins (5 for 1000Watt 10 for 700Watt) until centre is cooked and springy. Let stand a few minutes and turn out. Feeds 4 adults. OOps.sorry left out one ingredient - add 2 dessertspoons of custard powder with the flour/sugar mix. Also for a chocolate variation change the custard powder to cocoa and pour in the bowl chocolate sauce (I use Hersheys) instead of golden syrup, jam etc. REposted by ace441"

"Basic Self Saucing Pudding Grease the base and side of a 1 litre Pudding basin with melted butter. Place a round of baking paper in the bottom. Put the empty basin in a saucepan on an upturned saucer and pour enough cold water to come halfway up the side of the basin. Remove the basin and put the water on to boil. Sift 1 ¼ cups self-raising flour into a bowl, add a pinch of salt, 120g softened butter, 2/3 cup sugar and 3 eggs and beat together well. Pour into basin. Cover a sheet of foil with a sheet of baking paper and make a large pleat in the middle. Grease the paper with melted butter. Place paper-side-down on top of the basin and tie with string securely around the rim of the basin and over the top to make a handle. Lower the basin into the simmering water and cover with a tight-fitting lid. Cook for 1 hour 45 minutes. Check the level after an hour and top up to the original level with boiling water as needed. Try putting a coin in the base of the saucepan – it will stop rattling when the water is getting low.
TOP TIP: To reheat a steamed pudding after cooking, bring it back to room temperature and reboil for half the original cooking time. Alternatively cut into slices and reheat gently in the microwave individually.
The following flavours can be used with this basic Steam Pudding.
Treacle Mix 2 tablespoons treacle into the pudding mixture and place 2 teaspoons of treacle in the base of the pudding bowl. When you turn the pudding out, drizzle with a little golden syrup. Serve with ice cream and custard.
Jam Place 2 tablespoons of strawberry jam in the base of the basin before adding the pudding mix.
Lemon Peel and remove the pith from a lemon. Slice and arrange slices over the base and up the sides of the basin. Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons of sugar. Add 1 tablespoon grated lemon rind to the pudding mix.
Fruit Mince Sift 1/4 teaspoon mixed spice with the flour, and stir 1/3 cup fruit mince into the pudding mix. Serve with custard.
Chocolate Sift 2 tablespoons cocoa powder with the flour, and stir ½ cup milk choc bits into the pudding mixture. Serve with hot chocolate sauce.
Banana Caramel Pour 30g melted butter into the pudding basin and sprinkle with 2 tablespoons soft brown sugar. Place slices of banana over the base and slightly up the side of basin. Add 1 mashed ripe banana to the pudding mixture and mix well. Serve with freshly whipped cream. posted by valentino"
