Add the flour, salt, bicarbonate of soda and cream of tarter into the bowl of a food processor. Add in the butter and lard and whiz for a few seconds until the mixture resembles bread crumbs.
Pour the crumbly dough mix into a large bowl and mix in the fruit. Then add in enough milk to make a scone like dough (I added about 6.5 tbsp of milk).
Knead for a min until smooth, transfer to a lightly floured surface and roll out till the dough is 1.25cm thick.
Cut out rounds of about 6cm in diameter, re rolling the trimmings and re cutting as necessary.
Heat a heavy bottomed frying pan and add a little oil in the base and set the heat to low.
Cook the hinnies in batches for approximately 5 mins on each side or until golden brown
Keep the singing hinnies warm in the oven until they have all been cooked.
