Lightly beat eggs and add a little at a time to dry mixture, stirring well until a soft (not wet) dough is obtained. If eggs are small, a little milk may be needed to get the right consistency. Roll out and cut to shape. Cook in frying pan over gentle heat, using a little lard to grease the pan to prevent sticking.
