Method

To make the pastry, whizz the flour, zest and butter in a food processor until combined. Add 3 tbsp cold water and pulse until it comes together. Shape into a disc, wrap in clingfilm and chill for 30 mins.
On a floured work surface, roll out the chilled pastry to a circle large enough to line the bottom and sides of a 21cm tart tin. Line the tin with the pastry, gently pressing into the sides. Press small pieces of pastry into any cracks. Trim the edges and chill for 30 mins.
