This shortcrust pastry recipe was so much nicer than shop bought.
Instead of the above filling, I used “pea and Brie” filling recipe by Kim Coverdale from superfoods recipe June 2010, p38
Great to hear Elke!
I’m not sure why, but the pastry turned out much wetter than I would have expected for a short crust pastry and cracked when I blind baked it. I’ll try again and see if I can get it right this time..
Hi Sophie! Hmm.. Bummer! I don’t know what would have gone wrong. Let us know how you get on!
