1. Preheat the oven to 220C/200Fan/400F.
2. Sieve the flour, salt and baking powder into a large bowl. Lightly rub in the butter until it is well incorporated into the flour and the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
3. Stir in the caster sugar and the sultanas or raisins. Crack the egg into a measuring jug and beat lightly. Pour in the milk or buttermilk up to the 200ml mark and give the mixture a stir.
4. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the egg/milk. Using a large fork or butter knife, lightly mix the ingredients together. If the mixture seems to dry, pour in a little more milk, a little at a time. At this stage I ditch the fork/knife and use my hands to lightly mix the dough. It should be soft and slightly sticky, but not too sticky to handle.

1. Preheat oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7. Grease a baking tray or line with baking paper. Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl. Using your fingertips, rub in the butter until it resembles fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the sultanas and make a well in the centre.
2. Add the milk and mix using a cutting action until the dough comes together in clumps. With floured hands, gather the dough together, lift onto a lightly floured surface and pat into a smooth ball. Do not knead or the scones will become tough.
3. Pat the dough out to 2cms thick. Cut into rounds using a 5cm cookie cutter. Gather the trimmings and repeat. Place rounds close together on the baking tray and brush with a little milk. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until risen and golden brown.
