Three Minute Jam Sponge
"This is a great jam sponge for people on the go who like the taste of a home prepared sponge to a shop bought one, and even though this is so simple and quick it really tastes like you've spent hours preparing it! Use any flavor jam you fancy! Have done the quantity to serve two but adjust as you need to."

- 125 g jam
- 2 ounces margarine (a little extra to grease)
- 1 egg

- Grease the sides and base of an appropriate size dish (allow for mixture to rise 1 1/2 inches when cooked)with a little margarine.
- Spread your jam on the bottom of your dish.
- Mix together all other ingredients and pour into the dish on top of the jam.
- Heat on full power in an 800 watt microwave for three minutes.

- Serve immediately--custard is my favorite!

I live in the South of England, no kids but preparing for one day cooking for a whole brood hopefully!
I love Australia most of all for food - exotic food but also hearty homecooked aswell.
I enjoy salsa to burn off the excess calories and one day again i hope to be some good at it!
