:violent2: for suger pastry you need

# 1 egg
2oz (50g) suger
5 oz (125g )marg or butter
8oz (200g)flour

method
cream egg and suger add marg mix for a few seconds gradually add flour ,
or the way i do it bung all ingredients into a food procceser mix well , take out and put dough into a ball ,if its too sticky add a bit of flour , putin refridgerator to rest for at least 10 mins , it makes it easier to roll out .
