Sorry about that. Drat cutting and pasting!

Here it is again - i hope i've fixed the problem...

Anahita

Rodgrod med Flode - Red Berry Pudding with Cream
6 servings

4 cups red currants-- traditional but hard to
come by, so one can substitute fresh or frozen
strawberries and/or raspberries
[Anahita notes: maybe even lingonberries would
work - aren't they like tiny relatives of
American cranberries?]
3 cups water
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup potato starch (or substitute cornstarch)
1/2 cup cold water
Small amount of sugar for sprinkling
Cream, as desired

Put water and berries in a pot. Bring to a boil
and cook until the seeds separate from the fruit.
Strain through cheesecloth or a fine sieve.
Pour the red berry juice back into the pot and return to a boil.
Add sugar, stirring until the sugar is dissolved.
In a small bowl, mix the potato starch with cold water until it is syrupy/
Add it to the berry juice, constantly stirring.
As soon as it thickens, remove from the heat and
pour into individual glass dishes.
Sprinkle with sugar to prevent a skin from forming.
Let cool.
Top with whipped cream.
