Method

  1. Preheat oven at 180ºC. Grease a baking tray with some butter.
  2. Sift together flour and salt in a bowl. Add butter and mix well till the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.
  3. Add milk and ¼ cup chilled water and knead into a stiff dough.
  4. Dust the worktop with some flour, place the dough on it and roll out into a large thin rectangle. Brush some butter on it and fold the rectangle in an E-fold. Wrap in a cling film and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes.
  5. Remove the cling film, dust with some flour and rollout again into a large thin rectangle. Brush some more butter on top and fold the rectangle in a Book-fold. Wrap in a cling film and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes. Repeat the process for 6 times.
  6. Remove the cling film, roll out into a thick rectangle. Cut into thick strips using a pizza cutter.
  7. Drizzle some milk on the strips and top with cheese. Sprinkle the Italian seasoning on top.
  8. Press the cheese on the strips and twist them. Put them on the greased baking tray, place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes.
  9. To make dip 1, combine 3 tbsps mayonnaise and mint chutney in a bowl and mix well. To make dip 2, combine cheese spread and tomato ketchup in another bowl and mix well. To make dip 3, combine remaining mayonnaise and mixed herbs in another bowl and mix well.
  10. Remove the Cheese Straws from heat and cool them to room temperature. Serve with 3 dips.
