Ingredients

  • 18 ounces plain flour
  • 2 ounces margarine
  • 2 ounces lard
  • 2 ounces brown sugar
  • 2 ounces white sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 18 ounces currants
  • 5 ounces sultanas
  • 2 1/2 ounces mixed candied peel
  • 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
  • 1 teaspoon mixed spice
  • buttermilk, to mix

Instructions

  1. No method given but judging from the ingredients rather like a rich fruit cake :beat fats and sugar, add eggs; sift flour spice and raising ingredients, then add with fruit and cook in a slow oven (150C - probably around 2 hours but needs experimentation). Alternatively possibly rub fats into sifted flour/spice mix and then add eggs, fruit and buttermilk to produce the required dropping consistency.
