Tiny Cheese Onion And Olive Scones Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Heat the oil in a pan and cook the onion for 5 mins until soft, then set aside to cool. In a food processor, pulse the flour and butter together until the mixture looks like crumbs, then add the sage, cooled onion and enough milk to make a soft but not sticky dough. Tip out onto a floured surface, knead briefly, then roll out to 1cm thickness. Using a 1.5cm cutter, stamp out mini scones. Brush tops with egg, put onto a baking sheet and bake for 8-10 mins until risen and golden.
• To serve, split the scones, spread each side with cranberry sauce, then sandwich together with the turkey.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Boil potatoes for 15 mins until tender, then drain well and smash a little. Cool slightly.
• Mix the cheese, cayenne and onions with the smashed potatoes and stir to make a mouldable filling. Roll out the pastry to a rectangle about 25 x 35cm. Carefully lift onto a baking sheet and brush all over with beaten egg.
• Press the cheese mix along one of the long sides of the pastry, leaving 2cm pastry free on one side for sealing, and half of the pastry empty on the other side for folding over later. Fold the pastry over the filling and press the edges together, before trimming with a knife and sealing well by pressing the edges with a fork.
• Brush with egg and bake for 30 mins. Cool, then slice and serve with caramelised red onions. Can be made 1 day ahead
