Savoury Pie Dough


Savoury Pie Dough

                 Ingredients               Yield: 600g (1 1/4lb)
  • 300g (2c)               All-purpose Flour
  • 200g (3/4+1Tbsp)   Butter (cubed and cold)
  • 100ml (1/3+1Tbsp) Milk (cold)
  • 1g (1Tbsp)             Thyme (fresh)
  • 1g (1/4tsp)            Salt
                 Instructions
  1. Combine flour, thyme and salt in processor bowl. Blend to break up the thyme. (If doing by hand, give the thyme a quick chop before mixing the dough.)
  2. Add in all of the butter and pulse until it forms coarse meal. (Around the size of a pea for a flaky crust). To do this by hand just break up the butter  into smaller pieces and rub between your hands with the flour until it is the right size. (Work quickly as to not melt the butter).
  3. Add milk to the processor until it is able to form a dough by pressing it together. 
  4. Pour dough onto work surface and press together to form a cohesive mass. Knead for 4 turns.
  5. Wrap in plastic wrap and let rest in fridge for 1-2 hours.
  6. To use roll to appropriate size with a thickness of 2-3mm.
