- Now add gradually the water, a tablespoon at a time and keep processing until the mixture is sticky and holds together.
- Next get a square or rectangular baking dish, line it up with cling film and press the mixture in. Press down firmly to ensure the mixture sticks well together and is evenly spread.
- Pop in the fridge for a couple of hours, then cut in to bars and enjoy!
