1. Combine flour and salt. Cut in butter and shortening until mixture is crumbly.

2. Sprinkle cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, over mixture, stirring lightly after each addition until pastry is just moist enough to hold together.
|
3. Shape into 2 disks; wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour in the refrigerator.
|
4. Prepare filling by combining ingredients in a saucepan.
|
5. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer about 10 minutes or until liquid evaporate and mixture begins to dry. Set aside to cool.

6. Roll out one pastry disk on a lightly floured board to an 11-inch circle to fit a 9-inch tart pan.
|
7. Place dough into pan and fold overhang back inside and press to reinforce sides.
|
8. Fill with cooled coconut mixture. Roll remaining dough and cut into strips ˝ inch wide.

9. Lay half the strips across the filling about 1 inch apart.
