Description
Steamed apple pudding . I learnt to make this pudding at the beginning when i started to cook. I was confident with only steamed puddings then. Remember how i used to go through all the cook books possible for steamed puddings . I made it for the first time when my uncle jaffer ali came over to my place to visit me . He is not at all fussy with food even kanji (boiled rice with its starch) and payaru upperi (green gram boiled) will do for him . In fact it’s his favourite.I was so surprised when he asked me for a second helping of the steamed apple pudding . It’s that delicious and very easy to prepare with few ingredients. A regular pudding on my table very often.
