Ingredients
Method
- Cream together lard, sugar and salt. Mix in eggs.
- Combine flour and baking powder. Add this flour mixture to the lard mixture alternatively with the milk. Mix well.
- Pour batter into a well-greased 2-pound coffee can or other heat-safe mold. A piece parchment paper on the bottom of the can works well to prevent sticking. Cover with foil, and tie this on with a string.
- Set this tin into a large pot of hot water a few inches (~3) deep. Let steam for 2 hours.
- Mix raisins, water, lemon juice, cinnamon and sugar in a saucepan. Simmer for 1 hour. Mix in a bit or cornstarch, and cook until thickened.
- Unmold the grotten hans, and serve with the sauce.
