Cheese and Herb Damper image

Good Aussie Tucker Mate! I use this recipe all the time and it always comes up trumps! Damper is so versatile it is so nice served spread with butter on a cold night to serve with a bowl of steaming hot soup, or with casseroles or with salads in summer. It is great served with antipasto or dips on a platter or even great to take on picnics, to serve with anything you like. For something delcious try whipping up a batch of Recipe#283917 this butter goes so well with this damper and is so delicious.

30 g cheddar cheese, finely grated
1/3 cup finely chopped herbs (such as chives, parsley, basil and dill)
1 cup milk

Steps:
