Ingredients
- 1 - Fresh Egg
- 225 g Gluten Free Self-Raising Flour *
- 110 g SuperValu Butter
- 1 pinch SuperValu Salt
- 1 tsp Water
- 1 tsp Xanthan Gum
Method
- Sift the flour and salt into a large bowl and add the xanthan gum.
- Add the butter and rub into the flour until you achieve the consistency of breadcrumbs.
- Next add the egg and a little water if necessary. The xanthan gum will tighten the mixture so ensure enough water is added to ensure the pastry is nice and loose.
- Wrap it in clingfilm and place refrigerator.
- Use as required.
