    Our shortcrust pastry recipe is from the Fabulous Baker Brothers first ever episode, episode 1, season 1.

    This is a versatile shortcrust pastry, perfect for savoury pies.

    If you need a hand with your pastry or just love baking pies, why not come on one of our courses at our Cookery School in Chipping Sodbury.

    We use this shortcrust pastry recipe to make our chicken and leek pie recipe.

    Method

    1. In a food processor, blitz the dripping and flour together until there are no lumps. Add the cold butter and continue to mix until the mixture looks like breadcrumbs.
    2. Add the iced water gradually and keep mixing until you start to get a dough. Roll it into a sausage, wrap tightly in clingfilm and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
