Scottish Oatcakes with Cheese and Chutney - Scotland traditional dish

🧂 재료

👨‍🍳 조리법

1
Preheat oven to 190°C (170°C fan/Gas Mark 5). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
💡 전문가 팁: Using a greased baking sheet prevents sticking.
2
In a large bowl, whisk together the pinhead oatmeal, plain flour, baking soda, and salt.
⏱️ 2 minutes
3
Rub in the cold, cubed butter until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
⏱️ 3 minutes
4
Gradually add the milk, mixing to form a soft, slightly sticky dough. You may not need all the milk.
⏱️ 3 minutes
5
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead for a minute. Roll out to about 3-4mm thickness.
💡 전문가 팁: Handle the dough as little as possible to keep the oatcakes tender.
6
Cut out rounds using a 6-7cm cutter. Place the oatcakes onto the prepared baking sheet. Prick each oatcake several times with a fork.
⏱️ 5 minutes
💡 전문가 팁: Pricking helps prevent the oatcakes from puffing up too much.
7
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until lightly golden and firm to the touch. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
⏱️ 20-25 minutes
💡 전문가 팁: Oatcakes will crisp up as they cool.
8
Serve the cooled oatcakes with slices of Scottish cheese and a dollop of chutney.
💡 전문가 팁: Arrange attractively on a platter for serving.
