Cheese Frizzles

Total Time: 15 mins Preparation Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons oatmeal (finely ground in the food processor)
• 4 tablespoons grated tasty cheese (sub cheddar)
• 2 tablespoons flour
• 1/4 teaspoon mustard powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• ground pepper
• 4 tablespoons fat (lard but olive oil or butter will do)
• 2 teaspoons baking powder

Recipe

• 1 mix all ingredients together except the baking powder and frying fat.
• 2 add enough cold water to mix into a stiff batter. if it looks like porridge, it’s too liquid and the frizzles will flatten out in the frying pan. (if this happens, just add a bit more oatmeal. ).
• 3 melt the fat in the frying pan until it spits if you put a drop of water in it. add the baking powder to the mix just before you are about to start cooking.
• 4 drop teaspoonfuls into the hot fat – they will bubble a bit like crumpets. turn over and cook until golden on both sides.
• 5 drain on paper towels and serve on their own, or spread with fish or meat paste.
