WELSH CAKES
 

8 oz (225g) self raising flour
pinch of salt
4 oz (100g) butter/butter
2 oz (50g) castor sugar
2 oz (50g) currants
2 small eggs (or 1 medium egg plus 2 tablespoons of milk)

1. Mix flour and salt, and rub in butter until like breadcrumbs.

2. Stir in sugar and currants.

3. Add eggs and mix to a fairly stiff dough.

4. Roll out dough to approx 1/4 inch thickness (slightly thicker works well, too).

5. Use small/medium diameter pastry cutter to cut into rounds - don't forget to re-roll the trimmings!

6. Place rounds of dough on a moderately hot griddle for approximately 3 minutes each side - the heat of the griddle is critical so as not to over-brown the cakes! Experiment to find the correct heat.

7. Eat hot or cold - but our favourite is warm with a dollop of brandy cream!
