Answers:

Shortcrust Cheese Pastry

225g (8oz) Flour
110g (4oz) Cheddar Cheese
50g (2oz) Lard
50g (2oz) Butter
? tsp Salt
2 tbsp Water

Sieve the flour and salt together into a bowl.
Cut the fats into 1.5cm (? inch) cubes and rub lightly into flour, lifting the mixture to add air, until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
Add the grated cheese.
Make a well in the middle of the mixture and stir in enough water using a knife, until a soft but not sticky pastry is formed.
Cover tightly and allow to rest in a fridge for 15 - 30 minutes.
Roll out to the required thickness.
At this stage the pastry may be frozen if required.
It should be baked in a preheated oven at between 190°C: 375°F: Gas 5 and 220°C: 425°F: Gas 7 depending on thickness and use

Hope this helps and good luck!
