Cheese Frizzles - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 tablespoons oatmeal (finely ground in the food processor)
    4 tablespoons grated tasty cheese (sub cheddar)
    2 tablespoons flour
    1/4 teaspoon mustard powder
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    ground pepper
    4 tablespoons fat (lard but olive oil or butter will do)
    2 teaspoons baking powder
Preparation
    Mix all ingredients together except the baking powder and frying fat.
    Add enough cold water to mix into a stiff batter. If it looks like porridge, it's too liquid and the frizzles will flatten out in the frying pan. (If this happens, just add a bit more oatmeal. ).
    Melt the fat in the frying pan until it spits if you put a drop of water in it. Add the baking powder to the mix just before you are about to start cooking.
    Drop teaspoonfuls into the hot fat - they will bubble a bit like crumpets. Turn over and cook until golden on both sides.
    Drain on paper towels and serve on their own, or spread with fish or meat paste.
