Sugar Pastry

I got this sugar pastry recipe at collage and it really works well, I use it now as a base for all my sweet tarts. So if your looking for a good recipe, look no further.
                                                                                         Ingredients:

•    225g plain flour

•    150g cold butter, cut into small cubes

•    25g icing sugar

•    1 large egg, beaten

•    2 tblsp water

INSTRUCTIONS

•    To make the pastry, measure the flour, butter and sugar into a processor. Whiz until the mixture looks like breadcrumbs and then add the egg and water. Whiz again until it forms a ball. Wrap in cling film and refrigerate. 


      TIP : Make sure that the pastry is well chilled before you try to roll it, you can also freeze any left overs
