Picture
By Jodie Dobson, Kitchener NSW
Ingredients:
  • 3 cups plain flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 3 tbs caster sugar
  • 120g butter, cut into pieces 
  • 120g peeled pumpkin (butternut pumpkin is best)
  • 1/2 sachet Vissot Cambodian Curry paste, dissolved in 2 tbs of water (see below)
  • 125g glace ginger (or uncrystallised/naked ginger), chopped into small pieces
  • 200 mL buttermilk (or 180 mL milk plus 1 tbs vinegar or lemon juice and stir to curdle)

Method:
  1. In a medium bowl mix all dry ingredients together
  2. Add the butter and use your fingers (or food processor) to mix until it resembles coarse crumbs
  3. Cook (drain well) and puree the pumpkin 
  4. Mix together the pumpkin, curry paste, glace ginger and about half of the buttermilk (or curdled milk).  Add this mixture to the dry mix
  5. Gently combine (do not over mix). Add more milk, if needed, to make a moist or slightly sticky scone dough
  6. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and pat into a circle about 3-4 cm thick
  7. Cut out with a scone cutter and place on a lined baking tray close to each other
  8. Bake in a preheated oven at 215oC (195oC if fan forced) for 15-20 minutes


Serving suggestions: tastes great with honey or exotic ginger syrup and whipped cream
