Method
1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F). Line a baking tray with baking paper or lightly grease it.
2. In a large bowl, mix the self-raising flour, salt, sugar, and baking soda. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
3. Pour in the buttermilk and melted butter. Add the mixed dried fruit, then gently stir until a dough forms.
4. Place the dough on a floured surface. Shape it into a round loaf. Flatten it slightly.
5. Transfer the loaf to the baking tray and cut a cross on top. Brush with a bit of milk. Bake for about 30-35 minutes until golden.
