Summertime Flan

Pastry

Sift flour and salt. Rub in butter until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add water to bind to a stiff dough. Knead lightly and leave to rest for 30 minutes in a cool place. Roll out pastry and use to line an 8-in. flan-ring on a baking tray. Fill with foil and baking beans and bake ‘blind’ in a hot oven,
