Servings: persons

6 ounces self-raising flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon mustard powder
1 ounce butter
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh chives, chopped
1 large egg, beaten
4 ounces smoked bacon
4 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, grated
3 tablespoons buttermilk
2 tablespoons milk

Grill the bacon until starting to crisp. Cool and chop into small dice.
3
Sift the flour into a mixing bowl along with the mustard powder, baking powder and cayenne.

Using your hands rub the butter into the mixture until it's fully blended and it looks like fine breadcrumbs.
