Jam Roly Poly recipe

Ingredients & Quantities

• 250g of Self Raising Flour
• Pinch of Salt
• 125g of Shredded Suet
• 90-120ml of Water
• 4tbsp Raspberry Jam, warmed
• A little Milk
• 1 Egg, beaten
• Caster Sugar to glaze

Method

1. Sift the flour into a bowl with the salt. Add the shredded suet and sufficient water to create a soft, but not sticky, dough.
2. Turn the dough on to a floured board and roll out to a rectangle roughly 20x30cm/8x12in.
3. Brush the pastry with the warmed jam, leaving a 1cm/½in border all round.
4. Fold in this border and brush with milk. With the short side towards you, roll up the pastry loosely and seal the ends well.
5. Place on a greased baking sheet, with the sealed edge underneath. Brush with the beaten egg and sprinkle with caster sugar.
6. Bake in the oven at 400F/200C for 35-40 minutes until golden brown.
7. Remove from the oven, sprinkle on a little more sugar and serve hot with custard.
