Roll out the dough on floured surface and line the tins. Prick the base of the pastry case several times with a fork.
4.
Cover the pastry with a sheet of non-stick baking paper and fill it with rice or dried beans. Bake for 10 minutes, until the pastry is pale golden. Remove from the oven, discard the beans and paper and bakde for a further 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
