Since I’ve last posted we’ve visited the Indian capital of
South Africa. Durban. We had a total blast, trying everything from shwarama’s,
to bunny chows and of course the infamous curry.
A bunny chow - it's a quater loaf of bread with curry. |
The curry was absolutely divine! It wasn’t hot at all, but
it was so flavourful. I have to try and make this at home!
Infamous curry |
My husband and I also celebrated our wedding anniversary. I
can’t believe it has been 2 years! So to celebrate our day I made one of my husband’s
favourites. Scones, and tea. It was delicious, not many things can top freshly
baked scones.
Sift together: 2 Cups plain flour, 1 tablespoon of Baking powder, 2.5ml of Salt.
Add 4 Tablespoons of butter to the dry ingredients and rub it together until all the flour is covered in butter and looks like bread crumbs.
Mix together 1 egg, 250ml of milk and 15ml of sugar. Add this mixture to the flour and butter mix.
Now here is the trick. Don’t mess with the mixture to much, fold the mixture just until it is mixed.
You can now either roll the mixture out 2cm thick and cut
out nice shapes, or you can be lazy like me. I scoop out little balls and gently
press it down until it is 2cm thick. I like doing this, it makes the scones
look more rustic when it is cooked. You can brush the scones with a bit of egg
to help it bake to a golden brown colour.
Now place the scones onto a prepared pan and bake in a 220
degrees Celsius oven for 12 minutes or until golden brown.
Have a great day every one!
