½ cup icing sugar
50g butter
400mls warm water
½ cup quandong sauce
½ cup chopped quandongs
½ cup rosella flowers
½ cup rosella syrup

Method

Fruit mix: In a saucepan add the quandong and the rosella flower syrup chopped quandongs and the halved rosella flowers and on a low heat simmer until the syrup and fruits thicken and reduce to a jam consistency.  Add the cherry liquor. Set aside and let cool. 

In a bowl sift flours and icing sugar. Rub the butter through until crumbly. Slowly incorporate the warm water and turn out onto a floured bench and knead until firm. Roll out the dough at 1cm thickness and spread the fruit mix over the top. Roll the dough into a huge pinwheel and brush down with milk and sprinkle with castor sugar over the top.
