1. Sieve the flour into a mixing bowl.
2. Gradually add the water, whilst mixing with a fork / hand
3. Once all water is added, fold into a ball
4. Knead for 5 minutes on a hard surface until slightly elastic consistency is reached (this should be a ‘play dough’ consistency – you may need more / less water for the correct consistency – use the measurements as a guideline only). Once the consistency is reached, roll out the pastry to roughly1-2mm thick
5. Use a 70mm diameter circular cutter to cut out as many pastries as possible
6. Finely chop all filling ingredients
7. Mix with marinade
8. Mix with any of the above filling options
9. Place 1 teaspoon of the filling in the centre of each circle of dough. Fold the bottom centre over the filling to form a semicircle and pinch the top tight.
10. Pinch the two corners of the semicircle together leaving two symmetrical ‘Mickey Mouse ear’ shapes between your centre fold and the corner folds.
11. Now pinch the ‘ears’ in towards you to make four layered folds.
12. Tidy up to create a ‘half-moon’ shape and arrange on a plate.
