Cures for homesickness: Hot Cross Buns
Easter Monday made me miss South Africa a little bit, I
missed being able to go to church, lunch with my family , those white candy and
chocolate Easter eggs and Hot cross buns. Thank heavens though for a Skype talk
with my parents and for the Facebook friend who sent me a recipe of Hot Cross
buns. The recipe is really simple, and only takes a while because the dough
needs time to rise – I altered it slightly to work for me. My crosses failed a little bit as I don’t
have one of those icing things or even a plastic bag (I read somewhere that one
can use a strong plastic bag – like the ziplock ones -and make a small hole
in it ). And I spaced them too close to
each other, so they didn’t maintain their nice round shapes. Regardless of the
rough appearance it tasted delicious, way better than any store bought ones I’ve
ever had.
