Start.making.tarts.
Sieve flour and salt into a mixing bowl. Rub in margarine or butter until crumbly and add a little water (or milk) to form a dough.
Roll pastry into 0.5cm thickness and stamp out with a cutter. Press about 0.25cm deep in the centre.
Place pastry in baking tray. Add one teaspoon of filling. I love decorating the tarts with crossing two strips of pastry on the top.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180ºC for 10 to 15 minutes or till lightly brown.
I make these alot. Just because they're pretty. :lol:
