Lovely typo!

Heh. I think the River Cottage Bread Book has a recipe, but I've no idea whether it's authentic. By chance I came across a pack of oatcakes in the reduced aisle at my local supermarket today, so I had cheese and oatcakes for my tea.

Recipes tend to be closely guarded family secrets handed down, but the real secret is the right griddle temperature for your recipe. Frying pans don't really cut it.

Windy, I've never used the mail order service but these guys make some of the best in the potteries, made before your eyes in the shop:

There also doesn't appear to be any extra shipping charges to your part of the world  Probably worth investing in a bigger freezer and buying 24 packs 

Thanks Si

Thanks Si - that recipe looks similar to the one in my book. I've got a very heavy cast iron frying pan, so will have to give this a go.
