Lardy Cake instructions

1. Mix the dry bread ingredients together with the lard in a large bowl.
2. Mix the milk and water together, and add the yeast to it. Wait 10 minutes to allow it to activate..
3. Add the liquid to the dry bread mix and form into a ball. Kneed the dough for 10 minutes..
4. Cover the bowl and leave in a warm place to rise. It should have doubled in size after 45 minutes or so..
5. Turn the oven on to 210 C.
6. For the filling, mix the lard and the sugar into a paste and separate into three equal parts.
7. Line the base of your cooking tray with one part of the paste. I used a 25cm diameter silicon mould..
8. Once the dough has risen, roll out to a rectangle and in the middle third add one part of paste, and half the raisins..
9. Fold each uncovered third over the centre, rotate the dough and roll out back to the original rectangle shape..
10. Add the remaining paste and raisin as before and repeat the folding..
11. Shape the dough into a sausage and lay it as a spiral in the baking tray. Cover and allow to rise again..
12. When doubled in size, place in the over for 45 minutes. Remove and allow to sit for 30 minutes to allow the caramelised base time to firm up..
