1 To make the rough puff pastry, place flour and salt in a food processor. Add butter and stir with a spoon in the bowl to coat butter pieces in flour. Using the pulse button, pulse until butter is roughly mixed and formed into pea-sized pieces. Add chilled water and pulse four times or until just mixed. Turn dough onto a work surface and knead gently until smooth. Wrap in cling film and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
