The traditional welsh cake recipe results in a dry texture. I used the UKTV recipe, added another egg, some lemon rind, a little milk
Where is the proper recipe for Welsh cakes ? Well done to point that out to the uninitiated .
This recipe is not a traditional Welsh cake recipe (picau ar a maen). Do a stiff scone "batter" and bake on an Aga top or griddle pan. And don't let them get as dark as in the photo!
This recipe is just plain wrong.
Correct one to follow
