Charlie Bigham's · Frozen Meals
Date sponge sits at the centre here, with a separate toffee sauce that's poured over after heating. In the lineup, it's one of the sweet puddings rather than a savoury ready meal, and it comes as a frozen dessert for oven cooking. Sponge is built for softness, with chopped dates running through it, while the sauce brings the dark, sugary side. Heat it, tip out the sauce, then serve warm. Dates give the sponge a natural caramel sweetness and a moist, dense crumb that soaks up the toffee as you eat. It's proper British pudding territory, best finished with a pour of double cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream alongside.
