We chose to make Pogacsa, small Hungarian cheese biscuits, for our starter. Our family are massive fans of cheesy scones which we usually scoff with soup so I thought these would go down a treat.

The recipe, from Dinner: a love story, is a little more tricky than our cheese scone recipe and the result is much more like a cheese bread.

Nevertheless they are still scrumptious and they look like cute little loaves of bread.

Jo Etvagyat!
