Cheeselings

Cheeselings

Cheeselings
Ingredients

Flour ½ kg
Cheddar cheese grated 500 gm
Unsalted butter 100 gm
Baking powder ¼ tsp
Salt to taste
Oil to deep fry

Method
Sieve the flour and baking powder together and mix well.
Mix the butter, a little at a time, with the flour to form a crumbly mixture.
Add the cheese and mix well. Add water, a little at a time, to make a stiff dough.
Divide the dough into 6-7 equal portions and roll on a floured surface into a circle about 1/4 inch thick. Use a pizza cutter to cut the circle into thick strips in one direction and then in the other direction so that you end up with small diamond shapes.
Heat enough oil to deep fry and fry the cheeselings till golden. 
Drain on paper towels and store in air tight tin or box when cold.
