    Instructions

    1

    Preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease a 22cm x 15cm baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.

    2

    For the syrup, place all of the ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat. Simmer, 5 minutes, and allow to cool, 15 minutes.

    3

    For the pudding, cream the butter and 115g brown sugar with an electric mixer, 1 minute. Add the vanilla essence, eggs, chutney and amasi and whisk, 1 minute. Whisk in the self-raising flour until smooth. Pour the cooled syrup into the greased dish. Pour the pudding mixture over and smooth out the top with the back of a spoon. Bake until golden, 40 minutes.

    4

    For the custard-flavoured cream, whip the cream and castor sugar until stiff peaks form. Whisk in the custard. Top each portion with a dollop of the custard cream and scatter some of the chocolate on top. Garnish with fresh mint leaves, if desired.
