Savoury Scrolls

A quick versatile savoury scroll recipe that is enjoyable warm or cold.
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Servings 12

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups self raising flour
  • 90 grams softened butter
  • 1 pinch salt
  • ¾ cup milk (180mls)
  • 200 grams grated cheese (1 1/2 cups)
  • ¾ cup tomato relish
  • 4 rashers diced bacon (ham is a great alternative)
  • chopped spring onions or parsley

Instructions
 

  • Pre heat the oven to 180 degrees celcius
  • Rub together the butter, flour and salt.
    I like to put mine into the cake mixer with the whisk attachment for a quick and easy easy to rub the butter.
  • Pour in the milk and mix with a knife or dough whisk until it forms a soft ball.
  • Tip out onto a floured surface.
  • Sprinkle a little more flour on top, and roll out until the dough is about 1cm thick rectangle.
  • Spread tomato relish over the dough, leaving an edge of about 2cm (so that when you roll it up none of the filling squishes out).
  • Add plenty of grated tasty cheese.
  • Add bacon or ham (they taste great without too).
  • Roll up tightly ending with the edge with the gap (the relish will help seal the roll).
  • Cut the ends off of the roll to make them tidy.
  • Slice into twelve even slices.
  • Place on a lined tray with a gap between each one. Don’t make your gap too big because you don’t want them to spread too far. You want them to touch when cooked.
  • Cook for 20 ish mins.

Notes

Tips to remember:
- If you are getting your butter straight from the fridge - grate the butter to bring it up to room temperature.
- If you despise rubbing butter like I do - then place the scone ingredients in the cake mixer and use your whisk attachment to rub the butter into fine crumbs.
- If you don’t have any self raising flour, then use regular flour and 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder for each cup of flour.
- If you are afraid of the scrolls spreading on a regular tray you could place each segment in a muffin tray, or use a dish with sides so they can’t go far.
- Other ingredients that taste good are; spring onion, sundried tomatoes, caramelised onions, spinach, pesto, chopped herbs, feta.
