■ Put the flour into a large bowl. Add a pinch of salt.
■ Dice the butter and add it to the flour. Mix with both hands, until it forms a breadcrumb-like mixture. Continue mixing until the crumbs are roughly the same size.
■ Add the yolk to make a dough. Add a little iced water if required, being careful not too add too much, then knead into a firm dough. Cover and place into the fridge. Chill for at least 30 mins.
■ Break the dough into 12 pieces, then roll out each one with a rolling pin and place into individual pastry tins. Return to fridge for another 30 mins. Pre-heat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.

■ 把麵粉放入大碗，然後加上一撮鹽巴。
■ 把無鹽奶油切丁，放入麵粉當中，再用雙手搓揉混合，形成一小塊一小塊的狀態。繼續搓揉到顆粒都差不多大小。
■ 放入蛋黃揉成麵團，若果需要的話，慢慢加一點的冰水，切忌不可加太多，麵團完成後，密封放入冰箱冷藏至少三十分鐘。
■ 麵團分成十二份，再以桿麵杖把每份麵團桿平放進派模，放回冰箱內再冷藏三十分鐘。烤箱預熱一百八十度十分鐘左右。
