Malay Curry Puff Pastry (epok-epok)

Though ghee makes the pastry crispy, it's very rich -fattening. It doesn't really matter if the oil or water is hot when you knead the dough. 
Ingredients:
300g flour 
100g butter, oil, ghee or crisco 
100g water 
1 tsp salt 
Juice from 1 limau kasturi 
Method:
Mix lime juice, salt, water & oil. You can use hot water, but not with crsico. 
Add to flour & knead, you need not use all of the liquid. Knead well, leave it for 30 mins or so. Fold as usual. 
Make sure the oil is very hot before you put in the epok-epok. Fire must not be strong while frying. Drain well.
