Ingredients

  • 200 g Flour
  • 100 g cold butter
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 tbsp cold water
  • parchment paper
  • dried legume (for blind baking)
  • 3 eggs
  • 150 g sugar
  • 150 g double cream
  • 2 untreated lemons (juice and grated zest)
  • 75 g butter
  • 2 kiwis (thin slices)
  • lemon peel strips

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Quickly knead flour, finely chopped butter, salt, and 1-2 tbsp water into a shortcrust dough, shape into a ball, wrap in cling film and refrigerate for about 1 hour.

  2. 2.

    Roll the dough on a floured surface to the size of the pan, line the greased pan with it, and trim the excess edge with a rolling pin.

  3. 3.

    Cut parchment paper to match the pan, lay it over the dough, and fill with dried legumes. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for 20 minutes, remove, discard parchment and legumes, then bake another 10 minutes until the crust is golden yellow.

  4. 4.

    Meanwhile, whisk eggs with sugar in a metal bowl until frothy, fold in double cream, lemon juice, and grated zest, add butter in small pieces, then whip thickly and creamy over a hot water bath with an electric mixer.

  5. 5.

    Spread the cream onto the warm base, smooth it out, and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 45 minutes until set. It should only brown slightly; cover with foil if needed, remove, and let cool.

  6. 6.

    Serve the tart decorated with kiwi slices and lemon zest strips.
