Place the flour, salt and caster sugar in a mixing bowl.

Add the melted butter and beaten egg and stir together.

Gradually add the milk and then using your hands knead gently for a couple of minutes in the bowl to make an elastic dough.

Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface.

Cut the dough into 1cm thick, 9cm diameter rounds.

Gently heat a medium sized frying pan and dry fry the muffins turning regularly for about 4 minutes on each side in total.

Allow to rest, and cool a little, on a wire rack for a few minutes before cutting and serving.
