METHOD ONE - Preparing and cooking slices of Black Pudding:
Cut two or three slices of black pudding about ½" (1cm) thick. Heat the fat in a frying pan then add the black pudding slices. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side over a medium heat. Serve as part of a fried breakfast or brunch.
METHOD TWO - Preparing and cooking whole Black Pudding:
This is suitable if you want to eat black pudding as the main course and if you can obtain whole black puddings about 8" long by 1½" diameter (20cm x 4cm). Prick the pudding several times with a fork to allow fat to escape. Heat the fat in a frying pan then add the whole black pudding. Cook on medium heat for about 8-10 minutes, turning the pudding frequently. Serve with either heated ready-made stewed apple from a shop or (much better) with Meester Graham's delicious Apple and Honey Slices.
