Ingredients
- 600g strong white flour
- 200g cold butter, diced
- 200g cold beef dripping, broken into pieces
- 200ml ice cold water
Method
- 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.
- Add the iced water gradually and keep mixing until you start to get a dough. Roll it into a sausage, wrap tightly in cling film and chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
