Serves 4

Ingredients

120g butter
50g caster sugar
150g self-raising flour sifted
2 eggs
100ml coconut milk

For the lime syrup topping
100g sugar
3 tbsp lime juice
Rind of two limes very finely chopped
4 crushed cardamom pops (optional)

Instructions

1. Prepare the puddings by beating the butter and sugar together until creamy, then beat in the eggs and coconut milk.
2. Fold in the sifted flour.
3. Spoon the mixture into four greased ramekins or moulds.
4. Cut four rounds of baking paper the size of the moulds and place one on top of each pudding.
5. Steam the puddings for around 30 minutes.
6. While the puddings are being steamed, make the lime syrup topping by placing all the ingredients in a small pot. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring until all the sugar is dissolved. Reduce the heat and simmer for about five minutes until the mixture becomes a little thicker.
7. Remove from the heat and pour a little over each pudding.
8. Serve with a scoop of ice cream or low-fat yoghurt.

Lime and coconut make such a wonderful pair! I'll be sure to try these, especially with the cardamom.
