WELSH CAKES
MONICA
INGREDIENTS

1lb flour
½ lb butter
½ lb sugar
5-6 oz currants
1 or 2 eggs beaten
INTRODUCTION

These are my grandmother's version of Welsh Cakes and were always cooked on a bakestone, although you could use a heavy based frying pan.
METHOD

1.Rub fat into flour as if making pastry, add sugar and fruit and mix well together. Add enough egg to combine and make a dough.
2.Roll out and cut with pastry cutter and cook on lightly greased bakestone (or heavy bottomed frying pan) for a few minutes on each side – until lightly browned.
