Quick Steamed Jam Pudding

My weeks usually finish with me exhausted on the couch with a glass of wine watching 'Better Homes and Gardens' - quite a contrast to how Friday nights were in previous years! I'm doing well if I can make it to the end of the show.

A few weeks ago this recipe came up and it looked like a great quick one to make. You can watch the video of it here! Surprisingly it is made in the microwave with a very, very short cooking time.
I'm not a huge fan of stodgy hot puddings but this was a hit with the family. I made it in quite large coffee cups. It would probably be better in smaller cups.

We used jam and passionfruit curd - both were really nice.
It definately needs custard to serve it with.
