About this episode

Yumi shares a simple recipe for cheese biscuits that are perfect for impressing friends.

Impressing friends with one's cooking skills is truly one of life's joys. Yumi has found a new way that is super easy and you probably have 90% of the ingredients already. BELINDA JEFFEREY's CHEESE BISCUITS Combine all the dry ingredients: 300g plain flour, 50g Self-raising flour and a teaspoon of salt. Add in 2tsp mild chilli flakes. Mix well in the food processor. Add 40g freshly grated parmesan and a whole grated block of Mersey Valley (250g). Add 250g cold, cubed butter, whizz the mixture. It will look crumbly and quite dry. While it's whizzing, add in the juice of 1 lemon. It will come together. Halve the dough. Fashion each half into logs about the width (girth?) of a 50c piece. Wrap in baking paper and chill until needed. When you're ready to cook them, pre-heat to oven to 180C. Slice 4-5mm pieces off the log and spread them out on a baking tray. Top with sesame seeds or nigella seeds and bake for about 14 minutes. Serve with beverages and olives! PRE-ORDER WELCOME TO FRIENDSHIP HERE .
