Nézzük meg hogyan készül a klasszikus brit finomság, az epres kosárka! 

Ingredients:

Tartlets

1 pack of crust pastry (Tante Fanny édes linzertészta például – a szerk.)

Crème Patissière

– 4 eggs
– 60g caster sugar
– 25g plain flour
– 250ml semi-skimmed milk
– 2 tbsp. corn flour

Topping

– 150g strawberries
mint leaves
icing sugar, for dusting (optional)

Preparation:

Step 1 – Tartlets
Heat the oven to 160-180 °C. Grease six small tart cases. Roll the pastryout and cut round a saucer to make six circles. Put each one into the cases. Bake the empty pastry cases for ten minutes then remove from the oven and brush with the beaten egg. Bake for another five minutes until lightly golden brown. Remove and leave to cool.

Step 2 – Crème Patissière
Whisk togetherthe egg yolks and sugar until light and creamy. Heat the milk until it comes to the boil then remove from the heat. Add the flour and corn flour to the egg mix and combine well. Pour in the hot milk and beat together. Return to the pan and bring to the boil stirring all the time. As soon as it thickens remove from the heat, leave to cool and cover with cling film to stop a skin forming on the top. Pour the crème patissière into the pastry cases.

Step 3 – Topping
Wash the strawberries, remove the stalks and chop in half. Place them onto the crème patissière. Garnish with fresh mint and a dusting of icing sugar.
