Method

Step 1 of 3

Place flour, sugar and 1 tsp salt in a food processor. Pulse to combine. Add butter and process until finely chopped. Add egg and, with motor running, add enough iced water (about 2-3 tbs) to just bring the dough together.

Step 2 of 3

Transfer to a lightly floured benchtop. Knead gently until smooth. Halve dough and wrap each portion in plastic. Chill for 30 minutes.

Step 3 of 3

When ready to use, remove from fridge and allow to soften for 10 minutes before rolling.
