Lime Yoghurt Tarts

Sep 13 01:33pm
Makes 8

Ingredients
2 cups plain flour
150g chilled butter
2 egg yolks
1 tablespoon iced water
2/3 cup lime juice
3 tablespoons finely grated lemon rind
3/4 cup caster sugar
1 cup Greek yoghurt
5 eggs
1/2 cup thickened cream
lime zest, to serve
1 tablespoon caster sugar, extra

Instructions
1. Process flour and butter in the bowl of a food processor until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add egg yolks and water and pulse to combine. Transfer pastry to a board and press together into a ball using your hands. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour.

2. Preheat oven to 190°C. Cut pastry into 8 even pieces. Roll each piece into 15cm circles. Gently line eight 3/4 cup capacity tart tins with each round of pastry. Gently press the pastry into tins and line with a piece of baking paper and fill with dry rice. Allow edges of the pastry to fall free form and trim roughly with a sharp knife. Place tart tins on a baking tray.

3. Blind bake pastry for 15 minutes, remove paper and rice and discard, bake for another 5 minutes or until pastry is crisp and just beginning to colour.

4. Whisk together lime juice, lime rind, caster sugar, yoghurt and eggs. Divide mixture between pre-baked pastry cases. Return to the oven and bake for a further 15-20 minutes, or until filling is almost set. Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the tins.

5. Whisk extra yoghurt and cream together. In a separate small bowl, mix lime zest and caster sugar together. Add a dollop of yoghurt cream and lime zest to decorate tarts and serve immediately.

Okay guys, when you buy the yogurt, the limes etc to make the filling, you would need slightly more than one little tub of yogurt (as that is slightly under the one cup required above), a few limes (say three or four large limes) to make up the 2/3 cups of juice etc... so, with the balance of them limes and them yogurt, you make the final topping "garnish". Too easy.

Haven't you shopped for ingredients before? Nothing is ever sold as precisely 'one cup' or '2 tablespoons', which is why you al
