Ingredients

  • 1 kg self raising flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 400 ml water
  • 200 ml whole milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 50 g butter, melted

Method

  1. Sift the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt into a large bowl.
  2. Whisk the water, milk and egg together. Add this liquid gradually to the dry ingredients until a soft dough forms; not all of it need be used if the dough reaches the correct consistency sooner.
  3. Knead briefly, cover with a damp cloth and rest at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  4. Knead for a further 2 minutes, divide into 10 portions and leave them to rest for 15 minutes.
  5. Heat the oven to 220°C. Shape each portion into a teardrop, place on a baking tray and bake for 5 minutes, brushing with melted butter near the end.
