2. Stir in the flour, grated cheese & paprika or cayenne (if using) & mix thoroughly.
3. Gradually add cold water to form a firm dough. Wrap in foil or cling film and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
4. Roll out thinly (about ¼ cm thick) on a floured board and cut into 10 straws, each around ½ cm wide. Bake in a preheated oven at 200C / 400F / Gas 6 for about 10-15 minutes until golden brown. Best eaten warm or on the day they are baked.
Notes
This mixture can also be used as a pie case for savoury quiches or pies. Bake blind for 10 minutes before adding the filling.
Sweet potato can also be substituted for ordinary potato.
Mixture raw and cooked is a bit more fragile than ordinary pastry.
