Healthy eating is nowadays much more popular than before and rightfully so. Poor diet is a leading factor in health problems such as heart disease and hypertension which can place a drain on the economy. Even though we’re constantly being counseled to stick with healthy eating habits, it is also easier than ever to depend on fast food and other convenience items that are not healthy for us. Most likely, most people think that it takes a great deal of work to eat healthily and that they will have to drastically change their lifestyle. It is possible, though, to make some small changes that can start to make a good impact on our daily eating habits.

Initially, you will have to be extremely careful when food shopping that you don’t automatically put things in your basket that you no longer want to eat. For instance, has it crossed your mind to check how much sugar and salt are in your breakfast cereal? A superb healthy alternative can be porridge oats which have been proven to be great for your heart and can give you good sustainable energy at the start of the day. By adding fresh fruit, you can make oatmeal taste better and, before you know it, you will have made a healthy change to your diet.

Hence, it should be somewhat obvious that it’s easy to add healthy eating to your everyday life.

The ingredients needed to prepare Vickys Scottish Clootie Dumpling, GF DF EF SF NF:
  1. Provide 180 grams self-raising gluten-free flour
  2. You need 180 grams gluten-free brown breadcrumbs
  3. You need 180 grams vegetable suet
  4. Provide 1/4 tsp xanthan gum if using GF flour
  5. Provide 1 tsp bicarb of soda / baking soda
  6. Use 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  7. Take 1 tsp ground ginger
  8. Take 120 grams currants
  9. Use 180 grams sultanas
  10. Prepare 120 grams soft dark brown sugar
  11. Prepare 2 tbsp (lyles) golden syrup
  12. You need 300 ml milk or dairy-free alternative, amount varies due to suet
  13. Get 1 'cloot' - a large square piece of muslin cloth* or pillowcase
Instructions to make Vickys Scottish Clootie Dumpling, GF DF EF SF NF:
  1. You can use a greased pudding bowl in place of the cloot, covered with a piece of tented foil secured with a rubber band around the rim
  2. First put your clean cloot in some boiling water. Take the cloot out of the water, wring it out, lay it flat and dust well with gluten-free flour. Smooth the flour over the cloot with your hands to get an even spread
  3. Mix all the ingredients together with enough milk to make a fairly soft consistency. Make sure everything is mixed well
  4. Place the mixture in the middle of the cloot, draw the corners together evenly but leave room for the suet to expand. Tie the cloot shut securely with string. Put a plate or trivet in the bottom of a deep pan and place the clootie dumpling on top of it. Cover the dumpling with enough boiling water so it's completely submerged and cooks evenly. Simmer for 2.5 to 3 hours
  5. Carefully remove the dumpling from the pot and put it in a colander in the sink. Untie the string and gently pull the corners of the cloot apart. Put a plate over the dumpling in the colander and whip it over. Carefully peel the cloot away from one corner and behold your glorious dumpling!
  6. Some people like to oven dry their dumpling at this stage. I don't, it dries it too much and too fast. Let it cool and dry on it's own. It will keep for 3 months so it has plenty of time! Make in December to be mature by Hogmanay or as part of your Burns Supper on January 25th! Reheat and serve sliced with custard, or have the slices cold, spread with some butter and apricot jam. My grannie would fry the slices in butter when we were young, lovely!
