TANGY LEMON TART

Steps:

• Mix the egg yolk with the cold water.
• Preheat a baking sheet in the oven at 190C, 375°F.
• Rub the flour, salt, sugar and butter between your fingers until it resembles very fine breadcrumbs.
• Add egg yolk mixture and stir into the pastry mixture with a fork, stop when the pastry begins to come together.
• Turn out onto a floured surface and knead for a few seconds.
• Roll the pastry out to 0.5cm thick and fit into a loose-bottomed 24cm fluted tart tin.
• Trim excess pastry, leaving a 1cm border.
• Chill in the freezer for 10 minutes, then line with baking paper and fill with baking beans.
• Cook the heated baking sheet for 10 minutes, remove paper and beans, trim edges again and cook for a further 8-10 minutes.
• then remove from the oven.
• Reduce the oven temperature to 160C, 325°F.
• Make the filling by whisking the eggs and sugar together, stir in the zest, lemon juice and double cream.
• Transfer the mixture to a jug and carefully pour it into the pastry case. Bake for 35-40 minutes.
• The tart is ready when the lemon cream filling is almost set, but still wobbles very slightly.
• Cool completely on a wire rack and then remove it from the tin. As the tart cools, the filling will set perfectly.
• Dust with icing sugar and serve with crème fraiche and fresh berries.
