  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 1/2 cups self rising flour
  • 3/4 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Method

Prepare a cookie sheet by spreading a little butter. Sift the self rising flour and the all-purpose flour into a mixing bowl. Add in the baking powder, salt, cayenne pepper, curry and poppy seeds then stir all the ingredients together with a whisk. Cut the butter into the flour mixture till the butter becomes the size of a pea. Add in the milk and the beaten egg. Mix to form a dough. Lightly flour a flat surface and knead the dough for a few minutes. Shape the dough into a round loaf and place it on the cookie sheet. Using a knife slash a cross on the top of the bread. Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for about 45 minutes. Place on a wire rack to cool.
