I have been looking at various recipes and all are for large puddings, and I want to make this for just two of us. If I make, for example, Delia's Smith's recipe which serves four, do I just half the ingredients and use a 1 pint pudding dish and instead of steaming for 5 hours, just do for half the time?

Or is their better recipes and if so, can I adapt for two people.

Thanks

I started experimenting with suet puddings in a pressure cooker last winter. I haven't yet got round to trying steak 'n kidney but I would think it'd take well under an hour if you can find a recipe. I have found that you need to cut back on the baking powder in the pastry!

Just look on the popular food websites, such as BBC Food, for individual or 2 serve recipies.

Individual might be easier and nice for presentation. Although you may have to buy some of the little pots/tins to cook them in.

Have you got a slow cooker as I find they are great for steamed puddings. I make up a one pint pudding pop it in the slow cooker for 8 hours, or more if out longer and always comes out lovely.

Thank you all for the replies. I didn't think about the slow cooker! What a good idea, I will definitely use that method tomorrow. I found a Rick Stein YouTube recipe that looked great, so I will try this one. I brought two 600ml pudding bowls

When I make it for the two of us, we have it over two days. Just reheat in the steamer - even better the next day, like most slow-cooked meat.
