RUM CAKE

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 350°F/180°C. Grease well a 12-cup (10-inch) bundt pan and set aside.
• To make the cake: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
• In a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together butter, oil, and sugar for 5 minutes until light and fluffy. Occasionally scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add heavy cream (or milk), rum, and vanilla, and beat until combined. On low speed, beat in the flour mixture and mix just until combined.
• Scrape batter into prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 40-50 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. If the top is browning too fast while baking, cover pan loosely with aluminum foil.
• While the cake is in the oven, make the syrup: In a small saucepan, combine butter, water, and sugar. Cook on medium-low heat until sugar dissolves and syrup forms. Turn off heat and mix in rum. Set aside until the cake is ready.
• When the cake is out of the oven pour about half of the syrup gently and slowly over the cake. Allow cake to cool for 10-15 minutes, then, run a knife gently around the edges of the cake, and remove cake from pan, carefully inverting it onto a plate. After inverting the cake, brush top and sides of the cake evenly with the rest of the syrup. Allow cake to cool to room temperature.
• The cake is best served at room temperature. Store cake in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Leftovers can be frozen for up to 2 months.

Cook over medium heat until the milk mixture comes to a gentle boil. Stir the mixture, cover the pan, and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the rice is cooked through and much of the liquid is absorbed.
• In a small bowl, place the cornstarch. Gradually whisk in the remaining 1/2 cup half-and-half until smooth. Whisk in the egg yolks. Whisk about 1/2 cup of the hot rice mixture into the yolk mixture. Return this mixture to the pudding in the saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture just starts to bubble. Continue to cook, stirring, for 1 minute, or until the mixture thickens slightly. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Add the vanilla to the rum-raisin mixture, and stir the mixture into the rice pudding.

• Stir in 4 cups of half-and-half and sugar and bring to a boil. Simmer uncovered for 25 minutes, until the rice is very soft. Stir often, particularly toward the end. Slowly stir in the beaten egg and continue to cook for 1 minute. Off the heat, add the remaining cup of half-and-half, the vanilla, and the raisins with any remaining rum. Stir well. Pour into a bowl, and place a piece of plastic wrap directly on top of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming. Serve warm or chilled.

RUM & RAISIN PUDDINGS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Mix the dates with the hot milk and set aside for 20 mins. Mix the raisins with the rum and do the same. Grease 9 dariole or small pudding moulds and sit them in a deep roasting tin or baking dish. Put the kettle on.
• Whizz the dates and milk together in a food processor until you have a smooth purée, then scrape into a large bowl and mix with the oil and eggs, before stirring in the bicarbonate of soda, flour and sugar. Finally fold in the rum-soaked raisins and any rum left in the bowl. Divide between the darioles, then carefully pour boiling water into the tin or dish so it comes two-thirds to halfway up the sides of the darioles. Bake for 20-25 mins on a low shelf in the oven.
• Check the puds are done with a skewer, then lift out and cool a little. For the sauce melt the butter, sugar and cream together, then turn up the heat until it bubbles and comes together into a smooth, shiny sauce. Stir in the rum and raisins and cool. Turn out the puddings from the moulds, scraping around the sides of each with a blunt cutlery knife first. Line up in a shallow baking dish and cover with cling film. Keep the puds and sauce somewhere cool for up to 24 hrs.
• To serve spoon a little sauce and raisins over each pud, then pour the rest around (if the sauce has separated a little just gently reheat and stir back together). Cover the whole dish with a tent of foil. When the Christmas dinner is ready turn the oven down to 120C/100C fan/gas ¼ and reheat puddings for about 30-40 mins until hot. Serve with crème fraîche.
