  1. Puddings
  2. Cut
  3. one apple

Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.
  • Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. Pare some codlings, or any other boiling apples, cut them in halves, and take out the cores: then have ready some paste the same as for apple puddings, roll it out and divide it into pieces, each large enough to cover one apple.
  2. Make up the dumplings, and tie them tight in cloths, and let them boil gently for an hour.
  3. Or you may put them on a flat dish, or iron, and bake them.
