Making Puff Pastry

1. Knead the dough into a ball. Place it in a bowl, cover and leave in the fridge for 30 minutes.
2. Roll out the dough to a 60 × 20 cm/25 × 8 inch rectangle.
3. Place one 20 cm/8 inch slab of butter on the top third of the pastry. Place the second slab of butter about 1.25 cm/½ inch below it on the second third of the pastry.
4. Fold the uncovered bottom third of the pastry up over the second slab of butter, then fold the top buttered third down to cover it.

Repeat the turning, rolling and folding as in the recipe.
