Stew figs in orange juice 20 to 25 mins, until plump Strain, reserving juice, then chop. Rub fat into flour, stir in oats, spices, ,almonds, orange rind, figs and orange juice. Beat in eggs and Brandy. spoon into well-greased 1 -1/2 pint pudding basin. Cover with a double layer of greaseproof paper, then a piece of foil. Tie with string.
