Pastry

[atpocailleagh.livejournal.com]

Hey. My dad has recently come out of hospital and has now decided, after years of me telling him, to change his diet.
I was wondering if anyone has any experience with making pastry using wholemeal flour and olive oil (as opposed to a hard fat).
I'm not great at pastry at the best of times, so please try to keep it simple!
Thanks.

Mamcu posted this a while ago and it might work for your dad. I haven't tried it yet, but it does sound delicious.

It does sound nice, but coconut oil is saturated and that's what I'm trying to avoid. As well as hydrogenation.
I might just make it for myself though...mmmmm.
