    Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
    6                 oz  cold unsalted butter
    1                 lb  self-raising flour -- plus a little extra for dusting
    2          teaspoons  baking powder
    2          teaspoons  sugar
    1              Pinch  salt
    2              large  eggs
    4        tablespoons  milk
    6                 oz  small fresh blueberries -- or dried raisins
    2                     egg yolks
       1/4      teaspoon  sweetened condensed milk
       1/4      teaspoon  oil

Put your butter, flour, baking powder, sugar and a pinch of salt into 
a mixing bowl and use your thumbs and forefingers to break up the 
butter and rub it into the flour so you get little cornflake-sized 
pieces. Make a well in the middle of the dough, add the eggs and 
milk, and stir it up with a spatula. Add the blueberries to the 
mixture. Add a tiny splash of milk if needed, until you have a soft, 
dry dough. Move it around as little as possible to get it looking 
like a scruffy mass at this point, you're done. Sprinkle over some 
flour, cover the bowl and pop it into the fridge for 15 minutes.

Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface until it's about 1" 
thick. With a 2 1/2" round cutter, cut out circles from the dough and 
place them upside down on a baking sheet they will rise better that 
way. Re-roll any off cuts to use up the dough. Brush the top of each 
scone with the the Egg Wash twice and bake in the oven for 15-18 
minutes, or until risen and golden. At that point, take them out of 
the oven and leave them to cool down a little. Serve with clotted 
cream (preferred), fruit jam, lemon curd, or butter.
