In large bowl, stir together flour, sugar, raisins and caraway seeds (if using), baking powder, baking soda and salt. In separate bowl, whisk together buttermilk, butter and egg; pour over dry ingredients and stir just until moistened. Turn out dough onto lightly floured surface; knead lightly just until dough holds together. Place on greased baking sheet; flatten into 9-inch (23 cm) round. With sharp knife, score top into eights. Bake in 375F (190°C) oven for 45 to 50 minutes or until cake tester or wooden pick inserted in centre comes out clean. Let pan cool on rack for 5 minutes before serving.
If you make it without the raisins, serve with Roma Downey's Irish Lamb Stew.
Makes 8 servings.
