Slowly add cold water, 1 teaspoon at a time, tossing with fork until flour is moistened without being wet. Gather dough with moist hands, shape into flattened round and let rest about 15 minutes.

(To facilitate rolling, dough may also be rolled between sheets of wax paper Or unrolled dough may be placed in pan and gently pressed to cover inside of pan.) Gently lift and press onto 23 cm square tart pan with removable bottom. Cut off dough edges. Bake at 220ºC or 10 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
