I recently developed a knack for making biscuits, and found these two
recipes to be my favorites so far. The curried biscuits were particularly
delicious covered with a thick spicy lentil stew. Melted the snow outside
our door, honest! Combine flour, baking powder and salt and sift into
mixing bowl. Cut in butter, rubbing it in with tips of fingers. Add sweet
potatoes, then the milk (2-4 T ??) Mix Knead for 30 seconds on floured
board. Pat lightly into a sheet 1/2″ thick, and cut with cutter (a glass
works) Place biscuits on a very lightly oiled baking sheet and bake in a
450 F oven for 12-17 min. Makes about
12. Serve very hot!
