Cooking instruction summary:

Brush a 1.5-litre pudding basin with oil– if you don’t have a 1.5-litre puddingbasin, use a smaller one and serve anyfruit that won’t fit on the side. Line thebasin with a double layer of cling film,overhanging the basin at the top.Put the blackberries, cherries, grapesand sugar in a saucepan with 3 tbspwater. Cover and gently heat, stirringoccasionally, until the sugar has meltedand the fruit is syrupy. Add the currantsand blueberries, cover and cook gentlyfor 2 mins more until the fruit is justsoftened. Take off the heat and cool.Strain the fruit into a colander set overa bowl. Leave for 5 mins to drain well,then stir the cassis or Ribena into thecaptured juices. Trim the crusts from thebread slices and discard, losing as littlebread as possible. Then use a pastrybrush to spread a little of the berry juicesover one side of each slice. Cut a circlefrom 1 slice (or 2 semi-circles from2 slices) that will neatly cover the base ofthe basin, and push in – juice-side down.Reserve some bread so that you haveenough to cover the top of the basin,then halve the remaining slices into fatfingers – trimming to the correct lengthto line the sides of the basin. Then,juice-side down, work round the basin,overlapping the edges of the breadslightly and pressing them to stay inplace, until the basin is completely linedwith bread. Patch any gaps with scraps.Reserve a couple of spoonfuls of fruit toserve, then spoon the remainder into thebread-lined basin, squishing the fruit downto level it. Reserve 150ml of the juiceswith the reserved berries, then pour therest into the basin, concentrating onpouring it around the edges to soak intothe bread. Jigsaw the reserved bread toneatly cover the top and seal in the fruit,this time placing it juice-side up. Looselycover the top of the basin with cling film.Find a small plate that will fit snuglyinside the basin so it is in contact withthe pudding and add 4 x 400g cans toweigh it down.

Food Joke

John invited his mother over for dinner. During the meal, his mother couldn't help noticing how attractive and shapely the housekeeper was. Over the course of the evening, she started to wonder if there was more between John and the housekeeper than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, John volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, my relationship with my housekeeper is purely professional." About a week later, the housekeeper came to John and said, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" John said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll write her a letter just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote: "Dear Mother, I'm not saying you 'did' take a gravy ladle from my house, and I'm not saying you 'did not' take a gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner." Several days later, John received a letter from his mother which said "Dear Son, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with your housekeeper, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with your housekeeper. But the fact remains that if she were sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom"
