GEORDIE STOTTIES



Ingredients:-

1590 gm plain flour 
30gm salt 
70 gm white fat 
14 gm sugar 
90 gm yeast 
850 gm water 
30 gm milk powder
Method:-

Sieve all dry ingredients together, then rub in the fat. Dissolve the yeast in warm water, then add to the ingredients & mix thoroughly. Knead for 10-15 minutes, cover with a cloth & stand for 30 minutes in a warm place.

 
Knead it again & stand for another 30 minutes.

 
Weight dough into 285 gm pieces, shape each into a round ball & allow to stand for 10 minutes.

 
Roll out to a 22cm diameter, cover & leave in a warm place for 20 minutes. 
Place on a hot tray & press a shallow hole in the middle with a finger.


Cook in a hot over (gas 8 / 230 C / 450 F) turning after 8 minutes & baking until golden brown. Allow to cool, but remember that the best way to eat a stotty is when it's still warm & fresh from the oven.
