Malva pudding is a classic South African dessert that has been around for over a hundred years. It’s a sweet, sticky dessert made from a simple recipe of flour, sugar, eggs, and milk, served with a creamy, caramel-like sauce. It's believed that the pudding gets its name from the malva flowers that grow in South Africa because of its similarity to the flower's texture. This modern twist on the traditional recipe uses a combo of boiling and baking to create a moist, flavorful dessert. It's easy to make, budget-friendly, and can easily be scaled up or down for any event.

Instructions

1.Preheat your oven to 180°C and prepare an oven-safe dish.
2.Dissolve the baking soda in the milk and add the sugar, eggs, and butter. Mix well.
3.In a separate bowl, combine the flour and salt and fold it carefully into the wet mixture.
4.Pour the mixture into the prepared oven-safe dish.
5.Heat water, milk, butter, sugar, and vanilla essence over medium heat stirring occasionally, until blended. Once boiling, remove it from the heat.
6.Pour this mixture over the mixture in the oven safe dish.
7.Bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center of the pudding.
