Confort Food on a winter afternoon - recipe


Worthy of a blog post? The family seemed to think so. Tonight's dinner was pretty simple...chicken and vege soup ( a good excuse to use up veges left over from the week in the fridge) and cheese scones. "yours are the only scones I have ever eaten and liked" was the verdict from one discerning diner!
My scone recipe is too simple for words...

Cheese Scones Recipe
2 parts (cups) self rising flour
2 parts (cups) grated cheese
1 part (cup) milk
salt (I use garlic and herb salt)

(I use edam to keep all family members happy but prefer a really tasty cheese...blue cheese would be fantastic)
You could also add...combinations of bacon, red pepper, mushroom, tomato, fresh herbs...

Mix cheese, flour and salt, pour in milk and combine - try to mix only just enough to combine.
Pinch off balls and put on baking tray lined with baking paper and sprinkle with grated cheese.
Bake for about 10 -15 mins (depends on size) at 200 degrees.

Great hot out of the oven with butter melting into them!
