Recipe



Divide the butter into 4 equal portions. Chill 3 portions. Sift flour
and salt into a bowl. Rub in unchilled portion of butter. Mix to a soft
dough with water and lemon juice. Turn out on to a floured work surface.
Knead thoroughly. Put into a polythene bag or wrap in aluminium foil.
Chill for 30 minutes. Roll out on a floured work surface into a ¼" thick
rectangle, measuring about 18x9". Using the tip of a knife, dot the
second portion of butter (in small flakes) over the top and middle
thirds of the rectangle to within 1" of the edges. Dust lightly with
flour. Fold in 3 by bringing the bottom third over the middle third and
folding the top third over. Seal open edges by pressing firmly together
with a rolling pin. Put into a polythene bag or wrap in aluminium foil.
Chill for 15 minutes. Remove from the bag or unwrap. With folded edges
to left and right, roll out again into a 18x9" rectangle. Cover with
third portion of butter as before. Fold, seal and chill. Repeat again,
adding last portion of butter and chill.
Roll out again. Fold and seal, return to the polythene bag or aluminium
foil. Chill for at least 30 minutes before using. While dough is
chilling, combine sausage, beef, onion, and spices. Roll dough out to ¼"
thickness. Use a pizza cutter to cut dough in 60 strips, 10 the short
way, 6 the long way, so that your strips are longer and narrower. Place
about 2 teaspoons of meat mixture on pastry to form a "log". Roll,
sealing edges together securely. Slash three cuts on top; brush with
beaten egg or milk. Let rolls rest in the refrigerator 30 minutes before
baking. Bake at 400°, 10 minutes; reduce heat to 350° and bake 20
minutes longer. Cool on wire rack, over paper towels to drain.
