Recipe

1.   
Heat the oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7. Line a
baking sheet with baking paper. Tip the flour into a bowl, add the butter
and rub in until the mixture looks like breadcrumbs, then stir in the sugar.
Add the milk and blueberries and stir with a knife to form a soft dough. Tip it
onto  a lightly floured surface and knead once or twice to bring it
together, then move it to the baking sheet and pat it out to a circle about
2.5cm thick. Dip a knife blade in flour and mark the circle into wedges,
cutting almost all the way through (wiggle it round any blueberries).

2.    Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until risen and golden, then slide onto a
wire rack. Mix the lime zest and juice with enough icing sugar to make thick
icing. Spoon icing onto each one.
