Pwdin Mynwy -- Monmouth Pudding

In Victorian times, bread-based puddings were considered ideal fare for children and for adults with delicate digestions.

¾ pint milk grated rind of one lemon
1 oz. butter 6 oz. fresh white breadcrumbs
1 oz. sugar 3 egg yolks
3-5 Tbls. strawberry jam  

Set oven to 350°.  Put milk in saucepan, add the butter, sugar and grated lemon rind and bring to a boil.  Put the breadcrumbs in a bowl and pour the hot mixture over them.  Allow to cool and swell.  Stir the egg yolks into the cooled mixture and then spread half the mixture into a greased, oven-proof dish.  Melt the jam, pour half of it over the mixture, add the remaining breadcrumbs mixture and finish with a layer of jam.

Bake for 40-45 minutes until set.

Serves 4.
