Sift the flour with a pinch of salt into a bowl. Rub in the butter until the dough resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add the sugar and currants. Make a well in the centre then add the beaten eggs and the milk. Stir the mixture with a finger until well-combined.

On a lightly floured surface slightly knead the dough. Roll out approximately 1.5cm thick.

Serve hot with butter.
