Put the flour and salt in a bowl. Add the suet, currants, sugar, lemon zest and orange zest and stir to combine.
Step 2
Pour in 150ml milk and mix to a firm but moist dough, adding a little extra milk if necessary.
Step 3
Shape the dough into a fat roll about 20cm long. Place on a large rectangle of baking parchment, wrap loosely to allow for rising, and tie the ends with string like a Christmas cracker.
Step 4
Place a steamer over a large pan of boiling water. Add the pudding to the steamer, cover and steam for 1.5 hours. Top up the pan with boiling water from time to time.
Step 5
Remove from the steamer and allow to cool slightly before unwrapping. Serve sliced with warm custard.
