About Me

My photo
I will attempt to update wartime recipes to modern tastes, in order to keep up with new trends, attitudes and approaches to food and it's preparation while still keeping a traditional British wartime feel to recipes. I will start by making recipes to the letter and move forward from there to encompass different modern diets. I will attempt to make meals first fit in to a popular diet plan and then will move on to Vegetarian/Vegan versions. So that everyone can enjoy British wartime recipes. This experiment is for my own amusement as well as to feel closer to my grandparents over the years they cooked and lived through hard times.

Cheese and Potato Scones - Half a Syn Each

Obviously the original recipe asked for flour and full fat Cheddar rather than cottage cheese but my recipe is low fat, contains no flour and is still very tasty.

Scones:
3 eggs
1 packet of instant mash
1 300g tub of non fat cottage cheese
1 clove of garlic chopped fine
1 tsp mustard powder
1 tsp parsley
3 spring onions

Top with:
40g reduced fat Cheddar

Method:
Mix the scone ingredients together in a bowl. Roll the mixture out as thick as required as these scones don't rise. Use a cutter to cut scone shapes. Place on a greased baking tray and top with the reduced fat Cheddar.  Place in a pre-heated oven at gas mark 4 for about 20 minutes or until they brown slightly.
Goes well with a little chilli jam and a lovely big salad.
