As I am not fancy into pastry making, I never bake any egg tart, though frankly speaking I love egg tarts. It is through a Facebook posting that I came across this rather simple tart recipe, which calls for Puff Pastry from the supermarket shelf. So, I gave this recipe a try out, and I should say the outcome is great, thumbs up! Though, I couldn't get the 'signature burn' as in the actual Portuguese Egg Tart, but to me, that is secondary. For now, I can at any time bake egg tart to satisfy my cravings ~ smile ~
Ingredients:
(A) Custard Ingredients:
2 eggs
1/3 cup water
1/2 cup milk
60 g. caster sugar
1/2 tbsp. cornflour (sifted)
Methods:
- Flour the work area, and roll the pastry (not too thin).
- Cut pastry slightly bigger than the muffin tin mold.
- Put pastry into the mold, press to the sides into even thickness and cut off extra with a knife.
- Mix all the custard ingredients in a bowl with a hand whisk until well combined. Sieve the custard through a fine mesh.
- Pour the custard into the mold.
- Bake at 200 degree Celsius for 40 minutes.
- Let it slightly cool down on a wire rack. Remove the tarts from the mold and place on a plate.
- Let's have tarts for afternoon tea.
I adapted this recipe from Faridah Ainuddin with a slight amendment.
