How to Make Super Quick Hot Water Pastry
- Place 200g of plain flour into a large mixing bowl. Create a well in the center.
- In a separate cup or jug, combine 50ml vegetable oil and 100ml of boiling water. Add 25g of lard or animal fat (optional, omit for vegetarian) and/or 25g of melted butter (optional, omit for vegan).
- Gradually pour the hot liquid mixture into the well of flour, mixing gently with a fork until a shaggy dough forms.
- Once the dough starts to come together, use your hands to bring it into a smooth ball. The dough should be pliable but not sticky. If it’s too dry, add a tiny bit more water; if it's too sticky, add a pinch more flour.
- Let the dough rest for a few minutes to cool slightly, until you can comfortably handle it. The warmth helps with the pastry's flakiness, so don't let it cool completely.
- Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the dough to your desired thickness. Use immediately to avoid the dough becoming tough.
- Fill and bake your chosen pastry item according to your recipe instructions.
