Ingredients

Tips & Substitutions
For a flakier pie crust, consider chilling the oil before mixing it with the flour and milk. If self-rising flour is unavailable, substitute with all-purpose flour and add 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder and a pinch of salt. This crust can also be used for savory tarts by omitting any sweet seasonings, making it versatile for various dishes.
Serving Suggestions
Serve these fried tarts warm, filled with sweet or savory fillings of your choice. They pair beautifully with a side of Green Cabbage And Egg Noodles for a complete meal. For a sweet touch, consider a dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of honey over the tarts before serving.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover pie crust in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If you've baked the tarts, keep them in a sealed container to maintain their crispiness. To reheat, place in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes, ensuring they regain their original texture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use regular flour instead of self-rising flour?
Yes, you can use regular all-purpose flour. Just add 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and a pinch of salt for every cup of flour to mimic self-rising flour.
What kinds of fillings can I use for these tarts?
You can get creative with fillings! Sweet options include fruit preserves, chocolate, or custard, while savory choices might include cheese mixtures or vegetables sautéed in oil.
How do I ensure my fried tarts are crispy?
To achieve a crispy texture, make sure your oil is hot enough before frying, around 350°F. Fry in small batches to avoid overcrowding, which can lower the oil temperature.
