Ed Baines's delicious traditional suet pastry is quick and easy to make
 

Basic suet pastry

Method
 
1. Butter a 1.75 litre pudding bowl.

2. Sift the flour and the salt into a large bowl. Add the suet and season with salt. Lightly mix and add the water a little at a time.

3. Cut through the dough using a round bladed knife as if you were making scones. Using your hands, mix to form a soft dough.

4. On a lightly floured work surface roll out the dough into a round disc about 0.5-1cm thick. Cut out about a quarter of the pastry mixture for the lid and set aside.

5. Use the remainder of the dough to line a well buttered 1.75 litre pudding bowl, leaving at least 1cm dough hanging over the edge.
