Beat the egg, sugar and jam together.
Melt the butter in a small pan on your stove, add the vinegar to the melted butter. In a separate bowl, mix baking soda and salt into the flour. Add the flour mixture and the milk to the egg and sugar mixture. Then pour in the melted butter and vinegar.
Mix well. Pour into a small (approx. 8 x 8") oven proof casserole and place in your 350 degree oven. The temperature can range from 350-400 degrees, just keep an eye on the color of your Malva. It should bake for 45-60 minutes or until the pudding has a rich, brown color.
While it's baking, prepare your cream sauce.

Melt 6 tablespoons of butter in your saucepan. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved. Set aside until the pudding comes out of the oven.
