Instructions

5 steps
  1. 1

    Mix the flour and salt together in a bowl. Rub in the chilled butter using your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Gradually add enough water to form a dough (about 4-6 tablespoons of water).

  2. 2

    Roll the dough out into a rectangle on a lightly floured work surface.

  3. 3

    Grate half of the frozen butter over the bottom two thirds of the dough. Fold down the top third and fold up the bottom third as if folding a letter.

  4. 4

    Turn the folded dough through 90 degrees and roll it out into a rectangle again. Repeat the process of adding the remaining frozen butter and fold as before.

  5. 5

    Wrap the dough in cling film and leave to rest in the fridge for 30 minutes before using.
