Cheese Twists
- 1 cup plain flour
- 1 12 teaspoons baking powder
- 12 teaspoon salt
- 12 teaspoon dried chili pepper flakes
- 12 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons butter, cold
- 12 cup cheddar cheese, grated
- 13 cup water, ice-cold
- Preheat oven to gas mark 7/425F/220C.
- Sift flour, baking powder and salt into a mixing bowl along with dried chili flakes and dried oregano.
- Rub in the butter and grated cheese till the mixture is crumbly.
- Add in cold water and mix lightly until mixture holds together and leaves side of the bowl clean.
- On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the dough to a 10x10 inches square.
- Now cut the square in half lengthwise, then cut crosswise into strips about 1/2 inch wide.
- Carefully lift each strip and twist gently and place them on a baking sheet.
- Bake on the middle shelf of the oven for about 15 minutes, or until lightly golden browned.
- Remove from oven and carefully transfer cheese twists onto a wire rack to cool.
- Store in an air-tight container - if you have any left!
