This week's recipe is for a delicious Apple Tart:
Ingredients:
1kg Granny Smith apples
50g butter
140g treacle sugar
Β½ tsp cinnamon
100g raisins
50ml dark rum
For the pastry:
225g butter room temperature
50g sugar
2 eggs
350g flour
Whipped cream to serve
Method:
Peel, quarter, core and the apples. Place the apples along with the rest of the
filling ingredients in a saucepan and cook for 10min over a moderate heat. The
apples should still be firm.
For the pastry, beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl until just mixed. Break in
a whole egg and a yolk (keep the white for glazing later). Beat together for just
under 1 min β it will look a bit like scrambled egg. Now work in the flour with a
wooden spoon, a third at a time, until itβs beginning to clump up, then finish
gathering it together with your hands. Gently work the dough into a ball, wrap in
cling film, and chill for 45 mins.
After the pastry has chilled, heat the oven to 190C. Lightly beat the egg white
with a fork. Cut off a third of the pastry and keep it wrapped while you roll out the
rest, and use this to line a pie tin β 20-22cm round and 4cm deep β leaving a
slight overhang. Roll the remaining third to a circle about 28cm in diameter.
When the apple mixture has cooled, pile high into the pastry-lined tin.
Brush a little water around the pastry rim and lay the pastry lid over the apples
pressing the edges together to seal. Trim the edge with a sharp knife and make 5
little slashes on top of the lid for the steam to escape. (Can be frozen at this
stage.) Brush it all with the egg white and sprinkle with caster sugar. Bake for 40-
45 mins, until golden, then remove and let it sit for 5-10 mins. Sprinkle with more
sugar and serve while still warm from the oven with softly whipped cream.
