4 ozMedium oatmeal*
1/2 tbspSalt
1 pinchBicarbonate of soda
2 tbspMelted bacon fat**
2 fl ozHot water***

2**or beef dripping.
3***approximately.
4-- mix the oatmeal, salt and soda in a bowl.
5Make a well in the center.
6Pour in the melted fat and add enough water to make a stiff dough which can be squeezed into a ball.
7Sprinkle the board and your hands with oatmeal and knead the mixture until there are no cracks in it.
8Flatten the ball and roll it out into a round just under ?inch thick.
9Invert a plate on top and trim off the ragged edges -- these can be added to the next batch of dough to be rolled.
10Cut the round into quarters, lift them onto a warmed and greased bakestone and cook over moderate heat for 20 minutes or until the triangles curl at the corners.
11Turn and cook the other side for 5 minutes, or finish under a moderate grill.
12Store the oatcakes in an airtight tin, and toast under a moderate grill, or in the oven, before serving.
13-- these are served with honey, marmalade or jam for breakfast, or with crowdie (a slightly sweet highland scots cottage cheese) for tea.
14They are especially good with fried herring or smoked haddock.
15Not to mention any kind of caviar you can get your hands on
