3Cover the top of the bowl with a double layer of greased greaseproof paper and secure in place by tying with string, ensuring you create a secure string handle for lifting out safely
4Pre-steam the pudding for 10 minutes by putting the lid on the pressure cooker but not cooking under pressure. Then turn the pressure regulator to 12 and bring up to pressure, cook for 35 minutes. Release the pressure slowly
5Meanwhile, blend half of the berries until smooth, then stir in the sugar and whole berries
