On Sunday, I invited the future in-laws around for lunch. Little Miss Cooking-Catastrophe decided to cook for the in-laws. That is bravery right there, folks. The lovely Warra's mom had bought me an awesome cookbook the last time I went to stay with them (subtle hint if I do say so myself) -
One, Two, Three On the Table - Bernice van der Merwe.
It's super handy book because the meals are all categorised into how long they take to prepare. (Even although the "ten-minute" meals really take me closer to two hours. But I think that's me, not the book.) I decided to make the Mediterranean Chicken Dish - which turned out to be rather yum. (high-five self) I decided to make one of my mom's delicious puds for dessert - We call it Star pudding. But it's probably got a bajillion-other names...
The Recipe is really simple and trust me - if I can do it, YOU can do it.

Oh Star Pudding looks a lot like Malva Pudding ... one of my favourite puds in the whole wide world (UK sticky toffee doesn't come close!)
