You could cheat and get the frozen ones...........................

Just use the frozen ones even the chefs in restaurant uses them. Is far too much hard work and time consuming task.

I am rubbish with pastry. But there was something on Radio $ a month or two back that said much the same as jean88, for consistent results, use bought fresh / frozen pastry.

Even the 'experts' admitted that buying pastry yielded better results than even the most consistent chef, let alone the 'once a month' baker at home.

Sad, I know. But probably very true !!
