Ingredients
175g self-raising flour
1⁄2 level tsp baking powder
1 large free-range egg
225ml milk (whole or semi-skimmed)
2 tsp sunflower oil
150ml Asda Crème Fraîche
100g Asda Extra Special Smoked Salmon
A few sprigs dill
Method
1
Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Make a well in the middle and break in the egg. Add about a third of the milk and whisk to make a thick batter, then whisk in the rest of the milk until the batter is smooth.
2
Grease a large non-stick frying pan with oil, wiping off any excess with kitchen paper. Heat the pan, then turn the heat to medium. Drop tablespoons of the batter into the pan, leaving a gap between them (you should be able to fit four scones into a large pan). Cook for about 1 minute or until you see bubbles come to the surface, then flip the scone over and cook for another 30 seconds to 1 minute or until brown. Put the scones on a wire rack and cover with a tea towel while you cook the rest (this keeps them soft).
3
Top each drop scone with a spoonful of créme fraîche, some smoked salmon and a sprig of dill. Season with freshly ground black pepper.
