The Lebanese eat a variety of small pies with savoury fillings. These make delicious canapes that are lovely to look at, or a nice light snack. I make them all with the same pastry dough.

Ingredients

Pastry

  • 500 grams plain flour
  • 1 cup sunflower oil
  • ½ cu

Method

Knead the flour and oil together with your hands until the mixture becomes doughy. Add the water. Then gather it together and place on a work surface, kneading it by hand until it is soft. Put the dough in a bowl and cover with clingfilm. Leave for 30 minutes until it has risen.

Makes pastry for approximately 25 pies.
