LEMON AND CONDENSED MILK BISCUITS (BOTSWANA)

Lemon and Condensed Milk Biscuits (Botswana) image

This recipe was featured on week 34 of my food blog, "Travel by Stove." I am attempting to cook on meal from every nation on Earth, and Botswana is my 34th stop. Unless otherwise noted, my Travel by Stove recipes are taken from authentic or traditional sources, and this recipe has been posted without any alternations or additions to the ingredients. This recipe originally appeared in "Mma Ramotswe's Cookbook." When I made these I used too little flour, so mine were more like cookies (as pictured in my photo). Yours will be thicker and more biscuit-like.

Yield 24 biscuits

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

7 fluid ounces condensed milk
1 pinch salt
8 ounces unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
powdered sugar, for dusting

Steps:

Cream together the butter and sugar, then add the condensed milk and keep blending until well mixed.

BOTSWANAN CHICKEN PIE (BOTSWANA)

Botswanan Chicken Pie (Botswana) image

This recipe was featured on week 34 of my food blog, "Travel by Stove." I am attempting to cook on meal from every nation on Earth, and Botswana is my 34th stop. Unless otherwise noted, my Travel by Stove recipes are taken from authentic or traditional sources, and this recipe has been posted without any alternations or additions to the ingredients. The filling for this pie is a little dry, but we really liked the combination of apples, currants and chicken.

Time 1h5m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

Ingredients

1/4 cup butter
3 1/2 ounces onions, sliced thinly
1 apple, peeled and diced
1 lb cooked chicken, chopped
2 teaspoons hot chili powder
1/2 cup currants
2 tomatoes, diced
salt, to taste
1 egg yolk whisked in 1 tbsp water
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 pinch baking soda
1 pinch salt
2 egg whites
1 egg yolk
1 cup butter or 1 cup margarine
1/4 cup cold water

Steps:

Fry the onions in the butter until translucent, then add the apple, chicken, currants and chili powder.
Cook for about a minute, then add the tomatoes and salt to taste. Keep cooking for another five minutes or so (the finished mixture should be pretty dry).
Meanwhile, make the dough. Sift the flour and baking soda together, then add the butter, working it with your fingers until you get a texture like fine breadcrumbs.
Now whisk the egg whites together with one egg yolk and add it to the dough. Add the water in small amounts until you get the right consistency for a pastry dough. Cut out circles about 6 inches wide or so.
Drop enough filling on each dough piece to cover about half the circle, with enough room left over to pinch the edges together.
Fold over to a half-moon shape. Repeat until you either run out of dough or filling. Prick each pie to vent.
Mix the remaining egg yolk with 1 tbsp of water and brush the surface of each pie.
Transfer to a well-oiled baking sheet (they stick, so make sure to use plenty of grease) and bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the pies turn a nice golden brown color.
