225gr plain flour
2.5ml plain salt
100 margerine or half butter
half lard

Method
Sift thhe flour and salt into a bowl , then rub on the margerine until the mixture resemblesfine breadcrumbs
add enough cold water to make a stiff dough press the dough together with your fingertips . if time permits wrap a greese proof paper and rest in the fridge for 30 minutes to use roll out on a lightly flavoured surface
whole meal variation
although wholemeal flour can be used on its own this does not create a rather chewy pasty . using 100gr each of plain flour gives a very satisfactory results
