Make a well in the centre of the mixture, then add the beaten egg and sultanas/raisins. Mix initially with a spoon to combine, then make into a firm dough.
Step 4/7
- rolling pin
Roll out onto a floured surface using a rolling pin. Roll out to a thickness of 0.75cm.
Step 5/7

Cut the dough into rounds (a cutter of 5 or 6cm across will be good)
Step 6/7

Using a very heavy saucepan, or a bake stone heated to a low/medium heat, cook one side at a time until golden brown, then flip carefully and cook the other side until golden brown.
Step 7/7
When cooked, put onto a sugared plate to cool, and sprinkle with more sugar. These are best warm, and with a little jam if preferred!
