Method

step 1
Butter a 1.5 litre basin and put a disc of greaseproof paper in the bottom. Mix all the ingredients and spoon into the basin. Cover the top with a disc of greaseproof paper with some holes punched in it. Microwave for 20 minutes on medium power (longer on less power) and then check whether it’s cooked with a skewer. Cook in further 5 minute increments, if it needs it, checking by inserting a skewer after each go.

step 2
Stand for 10 minutes before turning out. If you want to make this ahead, cool completely, wrap tightly in clingfilm and freeze until you need it. Defrost before reheating.
