BARA BRITH
Bara brith (literally "mottled bread") is sometimes made with yeast but Mary's family recipe omits it, giving a wonderfully sticky texture. It is best spread with plenty of butter.

A sweet, yeast-less Welsh bread studded with dried fruit. I generally soak my raisins in Irish breakfast tea, but feel free to experiment with flavors.

BARA BRITH BREAD
From the Avon International Cookbook. According to the cookbook Bara Brith is welsh for Speckled bread. I guess it's because of the currants and/or raisins used in the recipe. If you buy active dry yeast in a small container like I do, use 2 teaspoons for the recipe. Rising of the dough is part of prep time, as you need to let it sit and rise.

Steps:
- Tip the fruit into a bowl with the sugar and orange zest. Pour over the tea, stir everything together and leave to soak overnight.
- Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Grease and line the base and short sides of a 900g/loaf tin with 1 strip of baking parchment. Tip the flour and spice into a bowl, and beat in the fruit and soaking liquid. Add the egg, followed by the butter. Beat until you have a well-combined, stiff batter, then tip into the prepared loaf tin. Bake for 1¼ hrs, covering with foil or parchment if the top starts to get too dark. Check with a skewer - if it doesn't come out clean, give it another 5-10 mins in the oven.
- Leave to cool in the tin for 10 mins, then remove and leave to cool completely. Serve sliced and buttered, if you like.
