Method

1
Combine plain flour and salt in a mixing bowl, then make a well in the centre.

Crack the egg into the well and add half the milk, whisking to form a smooth batter without lumps.
3
Gradually whisk in the remaining milk until the batter reaches a smooth, pourable consistency similar to single cream.
4
Let the batter rest at room temperature for at least 10 minutes before cooking.
5
Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F). Place the bun or large muffin tin inside to heat thoroughly.
