JAM ROLY-POLY

Steps:

• Pulse flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a food processor until combined. Add butter, and pulse until pieces are no larger than peas. Add milk; process until a soft dough forms. Place dough on plastic wrap, and pat into a rectangle; wrap in plastic. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place a roasting rack in a large roasting pan. Butter a 21-inch piece of parchment paper; set aside. Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
• Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface. Roll out to slightly thicker than 1/8 inch. Cut into a 15-by-12-inch rectangle. Spread jam over dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Sprinkle chocolate over jam if desired. Fold short sides of dough in by 1 inch. Roll lengthwise to form a cylinder, brushing off excess flour. Pinch ends and along length of cylinder to seal.
• Place seam side down in center of buttered side of parchment. Bring long sides of parchment together at top, and make a 1/2-inch fold. Fold over again, and seal. Tuck ends under. Repeat with foil, folding sides together and twisting ends.
• Place wrapped cylinder on rack in pan. Add enough boiling water to come about 1 1/2 inches up sides of pan (water should not reach pudding). Transfer to oven; bake 1 hour, adding boiling water occasionally to maintain level. Loosely tent with foil; bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center of pudding registers 180 degrees, about 30 minutes.
• Transfer pudding to a wire rack, and let cool 20 minutes. Remove foil and parchment, and slice. Serve warm, with creme anglaise if desired.

JAM ROLY-POLY

Steps:

• Put a deep roasting tin onto the bottom shelf of the oven, and make sure that there's another shelf directly above it. Pull the roasting tin out on its shelf, fill two-thirds with boiling water from the kettle, then carefully slide it back in. Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Tear off a large sheet of foil and greaseproof paper (about 30 x 40cm). Sit the greaseproof on top of the foil and butter it.
• Tip butter, flour and vanilla seeds into a food processor; pulse until the butter has disappeared. Tip into a mixing bowl. Stir through the suet, pour in the milk and work together with a cutlery knife until you get a sticky dough. You may need a drop more milk, depending on your flour.
• Tip the dough out onto a floured surface, quickly pat together to smooth, then roll out to a square roughly 25 x 25cm. Spread the jam all over, leaving a gap along one edge, then roll up from the opposite edge. Pinch the jam-free edge into the dough where it meets, and pinch the ends roughly, too. Carefully lift onto the greased paper, join-side down (you might find a flat baking sheet helpful for this), loosely bring up the paper and foil around it, then scrunch together along the edges and ends to seal. The roly-poly will puff quite a bit during cooking so don't wrap it tightly. Lift the parcel directly onto the rack above the tin and cook for 1 hr.
• Let the pudding sit for 5 mins before unwrapping, then carefully open the foil and paper, and thickly slice to serve.
