Gorgeous spiced pumpkin scones with honey butter – what a treat for the tea-time table during autumn and winter. I have made these twice now and love the combination of the honey butter with the scones, although they are also delicious with plain unsalted butter. This recipe came from an Australian “Olive” magazine that was sent to me, apparently, Queensland is famous for its blue pumpkins where this recipe originates from – I added the spices as well as the honey butter! A wonderful recipe for the cooler months, but as it uses tinned or frozen pumpkin, these can be made all year around. If you don’t want to serve these with the honey butter, just split them whilst warm and spread with normal butter or cream. Mixed spice is a British spice mixture, I have a recipe for this on RZ: Recipe #266688

This dish could be served as a brunch dish, or for any light meal or snack. When I came across this recipe tonight in a recipe book – The Midweek Cookbook: 200 Ways with Potatoes – I really hadn’t looked at since the seventies, the name of this dish intrigued me. A web search produced nothing of relevance, just lots of references to dog breeding kennels! So unfortunately I know nothing of the origins of recipe’s name. I’m posting a C21st adaptation here so that I remember to make it some time! It’s actually rather similar to what I’ve always referred to as a chip omelette, although I usually make that with diced raw potatoes.
Very refreshing and light. Great start to any meal! Melon, lime and mint- oooohhhhh so fresh and inviting! Posted for Zaar’s World Tour 2005- the ingredients are popular in Australia, Asia, Mexico and the SW.
A wonderfully refreshing bean salad, great served alongside BBQ meats. Every now and again I’ll add in a chopped tomato or two.
