Sugar to taste (try 3 tbsp) before mixing well. Whisk the egg whites in a separate bowl, then carefully fold them in to the mixture (a little lemon juice will help the rise). Pour in the brandy or wine (as preferred) and fold in to the mixture once more. Grease your mould with butter and spoon the mixture in, being careful not to fill it to the top as the mixture will rise. Cover the open top with a disc of buttered paper, and then tie up in a cloth (or cover with foil). Steam the pudding in a saucepan of boiling water for about an hour. Leave the pudding to sit for five minutes before serving and decorate as desired - it's particularly good with a wine sauce!
