STEP BY STEP HOW TO DO

PASTRY

Pastry making is fun.  Here I am showing you how to make 'water pastry.'



Susy’s Water Pastry


Ingredients:
1cup plain flour
½ teaspoon salt
2teaspoons oil
1/3cup warm water

Method
In a bowl, place the flour and salt.
Stir in the warm water and oil and mix thoroughly
Knead lightly onto a floured board, to make a soft dough.
Wrap in a cloth/tea towel, let it rest for at least 45 minutes
Unwrap the cloth, knead the dough again very quickly
Divide the dough to 6-12 and shape them into circles
Roll them to large and thinner circles, until almost see through.
Now you have a beautiful thin water pastry that is ready to use.









I use the pastry for pies, strudels, dimsums.
