For 1 Matcha Four Leaf Clover Pastry, all we need is
15 grams of shortcrust pastry ( A )
24 grams of oil short-crust / oil-mixed dough ( B )

Steps:
Wrap B with A and make a round shape.
Use a rolling pin to roll it out ( a long strip ) , and then roll it up.
Pinch the middle at both ends and roll it out again.
At this time, the matcha – flavoured mung bean filling can be wrapped.
Close the dough, and then squeeze it again.
This is no need to roll it out.
Cut this dough into 8 sides.
Turn the two sides toward each other, so that the mung bean paste faces outside.
Press it lightly with a scraper.
