    Savoury roasted tomato and feta fingers

    Ingredients

    • 220g self-raising flour
    • 2,5ml (½ tsp) baking powder
    • 1,25ml (¼ tsp) cayenne pepper
    • 1,25ml (¼ tsp) mustard powder
    • 30ml (2 tbsp) olive or avocado oil
    • 100g feta, cubed
    • 400g roasted tomatoes
    • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
    • 1 large egg
    • 30ml (2 tbsp) milk, for brushing
    • 45ml (3 tbsp) fresh rosemary leaves
    • Maldon Sea Salt

    Instructions

    1

    Preheat the oven to 220°C.

    2

    Sift the flour and baking powder into a large bowl. Add the cayenne pepper and mustard powder.

    3

    Using a knife, work in the oil until the mixture resembles crumbs. Add cubed feta, roasted tomatoes and seasoning.

    4

    Beat the egg with the milk in a separate bowl and add half of this mixture to the other ingredients. Bring the mixture together to form a dough, adding more of the egg and milk as required (the dough should be soft but not sticky).

    5

    Take golf ball-sized pieces of dough and roll into cigar shapes. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Brush the scones with milk and scatter with rosemary leaves and salt.
