Traditional Welsh Dish: Servings: 24
Ingredients
500g self raising flour
250g margarine
250g sugar
250g currants
tsp mixed spice
half tsp salt
300ml skim milk
2 eggs
Flour for dusting
This recipe is traditionally cooked on a stove top Bakestone, but a hotplate or flat grill surface or large non-stick frying plan works well.
Personally I use the flar half of my George Foreman.
Instructions
Beat the eggs, then add the remaining ingredients (but leave some sugar for dusting) in a cool mixing bowl, until a dough consistancy.
Dust a clean surface with flour. Break off a hand full of the dough and roll out until approx 1/4 inch thick.
Cut circles out using a cutter apporx 3cm diameter is ideal.
Now place onto the warm surface and cook for approx 1 minute each side or until browned- Becareful to insure the centre is not still doughy.
Dust with the remaining sugar and serve immediately.
These will last and are great if stored in an air tight container- but best eaten warm.
I don’t want this to be about diet food, as I believe good, food should be inclusive, so good health, good conscience and great taste! If you want to make some non-skim versions-enjoy…just some of us are no that fortunate. Not everyone's going to agree with my point of view, but that's fine- this is food through my eyes... or stomach? I'm not here to preach, I'm not a dietician or the next Masterchef, but this is my approach to food and I'd love to share.
