A MINI Christmas pudding caught fire in the microwave of a house in Norton yesterday.
Fire crews were called to the house in Welham Road at about 4.45pm after the burning food filled the kitchen with smoke.
A woman who was in the house at the time was given oxygen but did not need hospital treatment.
North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service said the festive treat is believed to have been put on the wrong microwave setting.
