Apples and pears as you’ve never eaten them before, in a savoury tray bake, a stunning squash soup and this spectacular – and simple – tart
Apple tart is a French classic and this work of art is almost too pretty to eat!
Serves 8
- 100g (3½oz) plain flour
- 50g (1¾oz) icing sugar
- 50g (1¾oz) butter
- 1 egg yolk
- 1tbsp cold water
For the filling
- 6 Cox or other eating apples
- 1tsp lemon juice
- 10g (1/3oz) butter
- 20g (2/3oz) caster sugar
- ½tsp vanilla extract
- Zest of ½ a lemon
For the apple roses
- 3 red-skinned apples
- 1 green-skinned apple
- Juice of ½ a lemon
- 1tsp icing sugar
- Crème fraîche or custard, to serve
Put the flour and icing sugar in a bowl and rub in the butter until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
Add the egg yolk and water. Mix until it forms a firm dough. Wrap in clingfilm and rest in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 210°C/fan 190°C/gas 7. Roll out the pastry and use to line a 23cm fluted flan tin. Trim the top of the pastry.
Line the pastry case with a circle of parchment or foil and fill with baking beans. Bake blind for 15 minutes, until lightly golden, then remove the paper and beans and return the tart to the oven for 5 minutes, until pale golden and dry.
Peel, core and chop the 6 apples and put in a pan with the lemon juice. Cover tightly and cook over a low heat for 20 minutes, until soft.
Add the butter, sugar, vanilla and lemon zest and mash until smooth. Spread over the pastry.
For the roses, thinly slice the apples and put in a bowl with the lemon juice and 2tbsp water.
Cover with clingfilm and microwave for 3 minutes, until just soft. Drain and cool. Roll one red slice tightly to form the centre of a rose.
Wind red apple slices around this, slightly overlapping, to make a rose. Repeat 5 times (see picture).
Arrange the green slices in between the roses and return the tart to the oven at 200°C/fan 180°C/gas 6 for 10 minutes, until lightly caramelised. Dust with icing sugar and serve with crème fraîche or custard.
