16 steps
  1. Step 1

    Place the plain flour and cold cubed butter into a food processor*. Pulse until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.

    Slowly add the cold water, blitzing until the mix comes together as a soft dough.

  3. Step 3

    Remove from the food processor*, wrap the dough with cling film and chill in the refrigerator for a minimum of 30 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Place the cherry pie filling, frozen forest fruits and lemon juice in a bowl, mix well and set aside.

    Cut 2 large sheets of parchment paper and roll your pastry between the parchment paper sheets, with a rolling pin, until ½ cm thick.

    Line a 23cm fluted round tin with the rolled pastry and trim away any excess from the edges.

    Re-roll the excess pastry to approximately ½ cm thick, using the method above. Cut 8 strips, approximately 26cm long and 1cm wide.

    Place these strips on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and refrigerate.

  11. Step 11
