Приготовление

1. Heat the oven to 220°C. Line a baking tray with parchment.
2. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl, then stir in the sugar.
3. Rub in the cold butter until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs, then stir in the sultanas.
4. Beat the egg with the milk. Reserve a little for glazing and mix the rest into the flour just until a soft dough forms.
5. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface, knead briefly, and pat it to about 2 cm thick.
6. Cut out rounds with a 6 cm cutter, place them on the tray, and brush the tops with the reserved egg-milk mixture.
7. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until risen and golden. Cool on a rack and serve split with butter or clotted cream and jam.
