Ingredients
  

  • 3 oz rice flour

  • 2 oz corn flour
  • 4 oz butter or margarine

Instructions
 

  • Using a food processor, beat the flours and salt into the potato.
  • Add the fat, cutting into small pieces with a knife before beating into the flour.
  • Work the dough lightly and briefly into a ball, wrap in cling film and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Knead the dough on a cold floured surface with the heel of the hand for 1 to 2 minutes when it should be smooth and putty like.
  • Refrigerate for another 30 minutes before rolling out on a cold floured board to the required shape. Keep moving it round on the board so that it does not stick.
  • Preheated oven 425°F 220°C Cook empty pastry shells for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.
