Puff pastry and palmiers
Puff pastry can be a tedious process of layering butter in rolled out dough, folding and re-folding and so on. It was great to find this recipe that tasted just as good and had all the layers. Watch the video in the link for the complete instructions.
Ingredients
1 1/4 cup flour
100gm butter, frozen
pinch of salt
4-5 tbsp chilled water
1/2 tbsp lemon juice
Method
Place the butter in the freezer overnight. Frozen butter is key to the flakiness.
Mix lemon juice and water and leave it in the fridge to chill. All the ingredients must be cold including the bowl and the flour.
In a bowl, mix flour and salt. Put the bowl in the fridge if needed. Take out the frozen butter and grate it into the flour. Use a knife to stir the butter into the flour. Add in the liquid, little at a time, just enough to bring the dough together. Too much water will reduce the flakiness.

Palmier /elephant ear cookies
Roll out the pastry dough. Sprinkle some cinnamon and sugar and roll the dough from both the edges lengthwise to form a log. Roll it in a cling wrap and set it in the freezer. Slice the log into thin cookies and bake them at 190C for 15-20min until light golden.
This cookie stays flaky for days and is mildly sweet with the sprinkled sugar. It reminded me of Ooty Varkey. Would try another version with sprinkling of salt instead of sugar.
