Preheat the oven to 190°C(170°C fan)|375F|gas 5. Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface into a large round approximately 1/2 cm|1/4" thick.

Cut out four rounds of pastry approximately 10 cm|4" in diameter and use them to line the base and sides of four microwaveable mugs. Gather the remaining pastry and re-roll it to 1/2 cm|1/4" thickness.
