Dear Chris
I like your website. My favourite pudding is Bread and Butter Pudding.
I'm particularly fond of it because it seems to me, when made well and not overcooked to be a triumph of lightness and delicacy.
All the best
Rick
Dear Chris
Here is Dot's recipe for banana pie:
Take 8 ozs of short crust pastry and roll two thirds of the pastry into a circle. Spread a little jam in the centre, leaving two inches of bare pastry edges. Chop up two bananas and place in the jam. Sprinkle with dessicated coconut, fold the bare edges of the pastry up around the slices of banana.
Roll out the remaining third of pastry, brushing this "smaller circle" with milk around the edges. Fit the smaller circle as a lid onto the larger pie. Brush top with milk and sprinkle with caster sugar. Bake for about 25 minutes at gas regulo 6.
I hop that is of use to you and that anybody who likes the sound of it enjoys making it!
Yours

Thank you for your letter to Nick Clegg MP regarding English Puddings. Your comments have been noted and Nick has asked me to reply to you on his behalf.
Nick was very pleased to be asked to contribute to your website. Nick's favourite is rhubarb crumble with custard. Its unique flavour is a perfect accompaniment to a warm spring evening and a great favourite with his children.
Thanks once again for writing to us.
Your sincerely.
