Easy Flaky Pastry

Ingredients:

500ml flour

5ml baking powder

5m salt

225g butter

+/- 60-65ml ice cold water

Method:

Grate the butter and put it in the freezer for 30-60 minutes to ensure that it is very hard before using. Put the flour, baking powder and salt in a mixing bowl and blend with a spatula. Add the frozen grated butter and rub to a rough crumb. Add enough chilled water to mix to a stiff dough. Cover with cling film and store in the fridge until required.
