ZUCCHINI SCONES
250g SR flour IN A BOWL
GRATE IN 70g cold butter
Add a tbl of salt, a tsp of garlic powder, a tsp of veg stock powder (I use Massel) and, for extra yum a generous tsp of smoked paprika..a spice that you MUST have in your pantry!
Mix this together and add 2 beaten eggs and 100g grated cheese (this is a good opportunity to use up all those little bits in packets and from last night’s cheese board. Seriously, ANY cheese will do, but in my world, NOTHING beats a stinky, local blue like Prom Country Venus Blue (drooling). Give it a good whack of pepper (and salt if not using parmesan or strong cheese like the aforementioned PCVB).
Next add about ½ cup of milk
MIX AGAIN - it will be lumpy, but stick together. DO NOT FREAK OUT! WE LIKE LUMPY.
DUMP lumpy ball onto a tray lined with baking paper and form into a circle about an inch thick. Use your maths skills to roughly score the circle in 8 equal wedges. DON’T CUT IT, JUST SCORE THE TOP.
Bake in 200deg oven until golden and cooked in the centre, about 40 mins.
Eat hot with a shitload of butter.
