Add wet ingredients and cheese to flour mixture and mix with a fork till just combined.
Turn out onto bench and form into rectangle 1.5 inches or 3 cm deep.
Cut into 12 squares or use a round cutter to cut into circle shapes. (Be gentle when you reform the left overs if you use the cutter method – the more the mixture is “played with” the tougher the resulting scone.
Sprinkle the tops of the scones with more grated cheese and sprinkle with paprika if desired.
