roll out the pastry to a rectangle 14X18 (45X35cm) and brush with the
fat. FOR THE FILLING: mix together the filling ingredients and
distribute evenly over the pastry. Starting from the shorter side,
roll up like a swiss roll. Then use a sharp knofe to cut off slices
about 1 1/4 in. (1 1/2cm) thick. Lay these on a greased baking sheet
and flatten slightly. OVEN: preheat for 5 min. at very hot BAKING
TIME: 15-20 minutes FOR THE ICING: sieve the icing sugar and blend
with as much of the water as will give a good coating consistency.
Ice the currant wheels while still hot
