Not only is it REALLY scrummy but it uses 5 eggs. Pastry. 4oz chilled butter cubed 8oz plain flour 1oz icing sugar 1 egg, beaten Rub butter into flour & sugar, mix in egg. Or mix in processor. Line 10-11inch flan tin, chill. Filling 4 eggs 8oz caster sugar Grated rind & juice 2 lemons 4oz melted butter 4 cooking apples, peeled 2 dessert apples peeled, thinly sliced.[I use cooking apples] 1oz demerara sugar. Beat eggs, caster sugar, lemon rind and juice together, add melted butter. Grate the 4 cooking apples into mixture and spread into pastry lined tin. Place the thinly sliced apples around the outside edge and sprinkle with demerara sugar. Bake 45-55 mins gas6 200c or there abouts I make the same amount of pastry but tart above is only 3/4 of the filling, using 1 lemon as it fits my tin better.

Serve warm with cream or cold with ice cream or our favourite lemon sorbet Back to top milkmaid Joined: 19 Apr 2005 Posts: 7308 Location: isle of lewis Posted: Sat Jan 13, 2007 11:37 pm    Post subject: looks lovely as i said before i'm coming to tea at your place if i ever get to the mainland your cooking really makes me ,hungry it always looks so nice Back to top CP Moderator Joined: 13 Apr 2005 Posts: 15923 Location: Hampshire Posted: Sun Jan 14, 2007 3:09 am    Post subject: Mmmmmmmmm!
