c,mon...KC..a proper Clootie take a good 2 hours boiling....i made these 2 in 20 mins....from start to finish..using the microwave..but i over did them..a little, the recipe said cook for 9mins,..which i did, but..that was for a 700w micro,...ours is a 1000w.....so they were moist on the outside...but deep down they were too dry....but a good helping of custard helped sort that out....
