We made our own pastry, which was absolutely delicious. This is not something I would ever normally do, but we had the space and time. Not only was it practical and educational but also lovely to do together. ⠀
⠀
So if you can, take some time to cook with your kids, it’s a great opportunity and silver lining.⠀

Thanks to my wonderful mum who gave me her recipe for pastry: nice and simple, just how I like it 😂 2 parts flour to 1 part butter + 1 egg.⠀
⠀
Pastry Recipe:⠀
300g whole meal spelt flour⠀
150g butter⠀
1 egg⠀
A drop of milk⠀
Half a teaspoon of salt⠀
⠀
Filling Recipe:⠀
Fried 2 onions until caramelised.⠀
Added some spinach into the pan until wilted.⠀
Whisked 8 eggs and half a cup of milk⠀
Grated 100g cheddar.⠀
Mixed everything together.⠀
⠀
Blind baked the pastry for 15 mins using baking beans...⠀
Then baked uncovered for 5 mins.⠀
Finally added the filling and baked for 30 mins or until firm.⠀
⠀
Healthy. Delicious. Nutritious. ⠀
