Irish Soda Bread

My mum has been making soda bread ever since I was born, and a lot longer. It's a staple for breakfast, lunch, and in-between meals. She mixes it in about 2 minutes flat, bakes it for about 30 minutes, and it gets eaten as quick. The best soda bread in the world - no measuring, no timing, just knowing...
