Spotted Dick is a classic British steamed pudding, traditionally made with suet and studded with currants. The dough comes together quickly with self-raising flour, sugar, and citrus zest, then gets shaped into a roll. It steams for about an hour and a half, resulting in a light, moist cake. Serve it warm, sliced thick, with plenty of custard.
