CAULIFLOWER SCONES

           

                               Cauliflower scones

                               This is my first post for the secret recipe group by priya.She will give us partners and we have to discuss two ingredients each and we have to prepare a recipe with both or one of the choosen ingredient.It's an awesome experience with my partner srividhya and We have become good friends now and sure we'll keep in touch always.Thanks to priya for giving me such a good friend. My secret ingredients suggested by srividhya are cauliflower and milk. 

                                    I just thought of making a different dish but didn't know what to prepare with cauliflower.Suddenly scones came into my mind and not even know whether I can make a scone with a vegetable.A scone is a single-serving cake or quick bread. They are usually made of wheat, barley or oatmeal, with baking powder as a leavening agent, and are baked on sheet pans. They are often lightly sweetened or unsweetened.It is basically belongs to british tradition.

                                   I made scones with cauliflower and prepared a stuffing with onions and cheese. I feel so happy with the result I've got and the taste is awesome.It made a fantastic combination and I've got many guests to eat the scones.They all enjoyed it a lot.
