    Recipe and Method
    PASTRY
    225g of flour
    Zest of 1 lemon
    150g of butter
    75g of caster sugar
    1 egg
    1 pinch of salt
    CUSTARD
    9 egg yolks
    75g of caster sugar
    250ml full fat milk
    250 ml double cream
    1 nutmeg
    Method
    1. Preheat your oven to 170°C/gas mark 3
    2. To make the pastry rub together the flour, salt, lemon zest and butter until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs
    3. Add the sugar to the pastry mixture, then beat the egg and slowly add to the mixture. You can add a drop of water a bit at a time if the mixture seems too stiff. Once the pastry forms a ball wrap in cling film and refrigerate for two hours
    4. To make the custard bring the cream and the milk to the boil, take off the heat. Whisk the yolks and sugar together then add to the cream and milk, mix well. Now sieve the custard into a jug and allows to cool.
    5. Roll our the pastry on a lightly floured surface to about 2mm in thickness. Place the pastry into the 20cm loose bottom flan tin and use any excess pastry to push into the pastry into place. Roll over the pastry with a rolling pin to get a nice finish. Refrigerate again if the pastry has become very soft.
    6
    Place some greaseproof paper into the pastry case and fill with baking beans or rice. Bake blind for about 10 minutes or until the pastry is starting to turn golden brown. Remove the baking beans or rice then allow the pastry case to cool.
    6. Turn the oven down to 130°C/gas mark 1, add the custard to the pastry case, grate over the nutmeg.
    7. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until the custard appears set but not too firm and the middle has a slight wobble.

    Made this today and it tasted like crème brûlée in a pastry case, I was expecting it to taste like a shop bought custard tart.

    Is it necessary to bake the crust first? Can't you just put it in at once?

      Hi, it’s better to bake the pastry first otherwise the bottom of the pastry case will be soggy. Thanks.

      You can keep cooking it for longer till it starts to set , it will be wobbly when hot good way to test it is to tap the side and it should wobble to the center and not wobble back - another reason it might not set is the size of the eggs

      Hi, maybe your oven temperature was a little too high, some oven temperatures do fluctuate.

      You mean so it can be understood by the only country in the world that uses that completely brainless sytem and to hell with everyone else. Let me guess, you are an American.
