Tart  crust  (20 cm pan)

-  1  cup  flour
- ½  tsp   salt
- ¼  cup  vegetable shortening, room temp, divided in 3 pieces
-  1 Tbsp butter, frozen
-  3 Tbsp cold water

In food processor, mix flour and salt, then pieces of shortening and butter. Process until mixture resembles crumbs, add cold water through food chute with processor running until a ball is formed, about 30 sec.

Dough will not always form a ball and longer processing toughens dough so you can shape ball by hand.
Tip: You can buy the crust in the supermarket
