Irish Soda Farls

Preheat heavy based flat griddle or skillet on medium to low heat.

Place flour and salt in a bowl and sift in baking soda. Make a well in the center and pour in the buttermilk.

Work quickly to mix into dough and knead very lightly on a well floured surface. Form into a flattened circle about 1/2 inch thick and cut into quarters with a floured knife.

Sprinkle a little flour over the base of the hot pan and cook the farls for 6 to 8 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
