Stage 3 - 10 min.

Stage 4 - 1 hour
Gather the dough together and form into a roll about 4 cm (2") diameter, then wrap in plastic film and refrigerate at least one hour or overnight.
Stage 5 - 7 min.
Preheat oven to 180°C (360°F).
Remove dough from fridge and cut slices 0.5 cm ( ¼") thick.
You will find that as you slice, the roll of dough will deform, so turn it as you go, and if necessary reshape the slices.
