Angela Hartnett’s queen of puddings

I love a queen of puddings. Breadcrumbs, soaked in milk, vanilla flavoured egg, jam on top and then meringue. And when made well, it’s delicious. It’s also a great way to use up old bread or leftover jams, so it’s basically a store cupboard essential. Don’t use a sugary jam as the whole thing will then become overpoweringly sweet.
