Method:

Pre-heat the oven to 180c

On a plate mix together the mixed spice and cinnamon.

Roll the joint in the spices until coated all over.

Heat the oil in large ovenproof pot, add the joint and brown on all sides.

Cut one clementine into quarters, and push the cinnamon stick through the centre of the other.

Add the clementine’s, mulled wine and sugar to the joint.

Bring to the boil, cover with a lid and place in the oven for about 2 hours.

When cooked remove the joint from liquid, cover with foil and allow to rest.

Meanwhile make dumplings: Place the flour, suet, Christmas pudding, apricots and cranberries in a bowl together and mix.

Add a few tablespoons of cold water, using a fork mix together to form a dryish dough which draws together. 

Knead lightly.

Take small spoonfuls of the mixture and form into about 10 balls. 

Drop these into the cooking juices and return to the oven for 15 minutes until fluffy but crisp on top.
