ASDA part of the Wal-Mart family

• 225g self-raising flour
• Pinch of salt
• 55g butter
• 30g strong Cheddar, grated, plus extra for topping
• Handful of Asda fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 egg, beaten
• 150ml milk

1 Preheat the oven to 200C/Gas 6. Lightly grease and flour a baking sheet

2 Sieve the flour and salt into a bowl. Rub the butter into the flour until it resembles fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the grated cheese and parsley.

3 Put the beaten egg in a measuring jug and make up to 150ml with milk. (Save any leftover milk for glazing the scones.) Make a well in the middle of the flour and pour in the milk mixture. Mix to a soft dough with a knife.

4 Spoon the mixture on to the prepared baking tray in six heaps. Brush the tops of the scones with a little milk, sprinkle over a little extra grated cheese and bake for 7 to 10 minutes, until well risen and brown. Leave to cool on a wire rack or serve warm. The scones can be frozen in freezer bags or a freezer-proof container.
