Disappointing Steak and Kidney Pudding
Asked on 25 Mar 2021 by William kent
Hello
I followed delias steak and kidney pudding recipe to the letter I have just dished it up and the filling is grey and uninviting what have I done wrong I was suspicious as it didn’t need browning first and the gravy is very watery inside
Many thanks

Hello,
The beef doesn’t need browning. The five-hour steaming slowly browns the beef and during the cooking the flour thickens the water and juices from the meat. We haven’t had any problems. Perhaps it was the beef! Did you put the flour in? Delia uses old-fashioned tablespoons so that is the equivalent of 4 dessertspoons of flour in this recipe.
Kind regards
Lindsey
Hello Lindsey I did put the flour in and so do I in the respect of tablespoons the beef was purchased from a reputable supermarket that delia indeed endorses I am a qualified chef and was somewhat surprised to your response as I purchased the beef fresh that morning
Many thanks
Hi Kevin,
I’m sorry that Delia’s recipe hasn’t worked out for you this time and that I’ve not been able to help you.
Kind regards
Lindsey
