1 Extra large egg, beaten
4 tb Water (approximately)

2. Mix the egg and 2 Tbspl of the water together in a small bowl.
3. Add the lard to the dry ingredients and rub the flour between the palms

it is smooth. Add the remaining water 1 Tbsp at a time if the dough
appears too dry.
5. Put the dough into an oiled bowl, cover the bowl tightly with plastic
wrap, and let it stand at room temperature for about 30 minutes before
