1 liter	Fresh milk
4 oz.	Grated cheese

Scones Ingredients:

Procedure:

Preheat oven to 450F temperature.

Place the cod fillets in the bottom of a round oven dish.

Make a cheese sauce with 2 oz each of butter and flour, milk and 4 oz. grated cheese and pour over fish.

Making scone dough, rub 3 oz butter into 8 of flour with 1 tbsp. baking powder, and pinch of salt.

Add 3 oz grated cheese, preferably mature cheddar or a mixture of that and parmesan.

Drop 2 egg yolks in the mixture and add enough milk to produce a workable dough.

Rollout to the thickness of 1/2 inch and cut into small rounds with a scone cutter.

Dispose these rounds on top of the sauce, so that they just about cover the surface.

Glaze them with a little milk, sprinkle some more grated cheese over them.

Serve 6 people.
