This is the ultimate take a long pudding. Whether it's a braai with friends or a weekend camping trip, this tart will sure be a hit.

Ingredients

  • For the pastry:
  • 120 g flour, sifted
  • 56 g almond flour
  • 45 g icing sugar, sifted
  • salt, a pinch
  • 113 g cold butter, cubed
  • 1 free-range egg
  • For the filling, whisk:
  • 1⁄3 cup lemon juice
  • 1 lemon, zested
  • 150 g caster sugar
  • 2 cups, plus 3 T cream
  • 8 free-range extra-large egg yolks
  • icing sugar, for dusting

Cooking Instructions

1. Combine all the pastry ingredients using a knife, but do not knead. Chill for 1 hour or until completely cool.

2. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface, place in a 25 cm tart case and bake blind for 15 minutes. Allow to cool.

3. Once cool, pour in the filling. Bake at 180°C for 25 minutes, or until slightly wobbly. Cool and serve dusted with icing sugar.

Cook's note: These tarts travel well; wrap with cling-wrap and keep them in the fridge or a cooler box
