Method
2) Add the butter and shortening. Pulse 8 to 12 times, until the butter is the size of peas. With the machine running, pour the ice water down the feed tube and pulse the machine until the dough begins to form a ball.
3) Dump the dough out on a floured board and roll into a ball. Wrap in cling film and refrigerate for 30 mins.
4) Cut the dough in half. Roll each piece on a well-floured board into a circle, rolling from the centre to the edge, turning and flouring the dough to make sure it doesn't stick to the board.
5) Fold the dough in half, place in a pie dish, and unfold to fit the dish. Repeat with the top crust after filling the pie.
