SCOTTISH OATCAKES
From Nigella Lawson's How to be a Domestic Goddess. NOTE: I made these for the first time yesterday and would like to give some tips. You may want to use a bit more salt, perhaps 1/4 tsp. as a pinch was not enough, and I'm not a heavy salt user. Also, after you've added the hot water and mixed it all up, you may want to let it cool down for a few minutes so it will be easier to handle.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 200C/400°F.
- Put the oats, salt and baking soda in a bowl.
- Make a well, pour in the lard and stirring with a wooden spoon, add in enough of the hot water to make a stiff dough. If you're using oatmeal, you should need about 75 ml; with porridge oats, you may need as much as 200 ml.
- Knead it for a while to make it come smoothly together, then roll out as thinly as you can.
- Cut into triangles or rounds.
- Bake on an ungreased baking sheet for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are turning golden-brown and the oatcakes themselves are firm (they'll crisp up on cooling).
- Remove to a wire rack to cool.

OATCAKES
This is my best attempt to duplicate Scottish oatcakes, which I had previously only had from a box (brands such as Nairn). I don't know how they would compare to homemade oatcakes in Scotland or Ireland, although in my search for a recipe, I've found that there are many varieties, including sweet or yeast-leavened. This recipe is based on one I found in a Saturday Evening Post many years ago--which I adapted, lost, and then had to recreate from memory. However, I am quite pleased with the final result! Everyone seems to love them. I think they are traditionally served with cheese, butter, jams, etc. but we just eat them plain. (Note: You may use up to 1 tsp. of salt, or no salt at all, as in the original.)
