Soak fruit in tea overnight. Melt the butter in the microwave, then add all ingredients to the fruit. Mix with a wooden spoon until all is mixed well. Put into a greased 8' tin and bake in a moderate (180c) oven for 1-1 1/2 hours. I some times put a crust of sugar on the top before putting into the oven. ENJOY.
Introduction
Given to me by my Grand mother who got it from her Mum.(Who was Irish) Mixed spice is good in this too. Also can soak fruit in a mix of black tea and Irish Whiskey.
