1
Put the flour in a bowl.

Chop the butter and blend it into the flour with the tips of your fingers (or with a pastry blender), adding the salt and sugar until it is like bread crumbs.
3
Add the water gradually and work into a dough, moistening with more water as needed.
4
Put the dough on a floured board and knead with the palm of your hand.
5
Shape into a ball and refrigerate for half an hour.
6
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
7
Roll the pastry out thin and cut in rounds half an inch larger than your cupcake tins.
8
Use a glass or a cutter to cut rounds for the lids.
9
Dust the baking tin with flour, fill each cupcake round with a round of pastry, and fill with mincemeat - not too full or it will boil over during cooking.

Press on the lids, crimping the edges together.
