a little organic lemon peel
(see measure conversions for more information)

Method

- Rub butter into flour with fingertips.
- Add the lemon peel, sugar, baking powder and currants.
- Beat the egg and add enough to the dry mixture to form a dough.
- Roll out to approx. 1/4 inch thickness and cut into biscuit shapes with a suitable cutter.
- Bake on a greased, floured tin for 20 minutes at 180 degrees centigrade (see temperature conversions).
