Feta & spinach scones
Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Put 280g self-raising flour and a large pinch of salt into a large bowl and make a well in the centre. In a separate bowl, combine 100g cubed feta, 3 tbsp sunflower oil, 2 eggs, 280ml Greek yogurt and a small handful baby spinach leaves, roughly chopped. Stir into the flour to form a soft dough, tip onto a floured surface and shape into a thick, flattish round. Brush with milk. Bake for 40-45 mins. Cool, then serve in wedges.
IF YOU WANT TO USE A SLOW COOKER
Gently fry your onions, carrots and thyme for 15 mins then tip it with the veg into your slow cooker with 1 litre stock. If you're using a chicken carcass, add it now. Cover and cook for 2-3 hours on High until the veg is tender. If you used a carcass remove it now, shredding remaining chicken from bones. Stir back into the soup, or add leftover chicken now, plus peas. Cook for 30 mins more. Remove half the mixture then puree with a stick blender to your liking.
