Luxurious Lemon Tart

6/12/2020

Ok, so this is a recipe that is not gluten or dairy free!  It was my first time making pastry so I was a little too scared to deviate from the recipe.  The results were absolutely incredible though and I love the small amount of ingredients the recipe asks for.  It did take me 3 hours all up, so make sure you have plenty of time for waiting.
Ingredients:
Shortcut Pastry:
2 cups plain flour
3 T caster sugar
150g butter
3 T icy cold water

Lemon Filling:
5 large eggs
140g caster sugar
150ml double cream
juice of 2-3 lemons
2 T lemon zest

Thermomix Method:
Pastry:  Place flour, sugar and butter in TM bowl and mix on speed 6, 10 seconds (resembles fine breadcrumbs).  Add iced water and knead 1 minute on interval speed.  Knead the dough into a ball on a lightly floured surface.  Wrap in plastic wrap and place it into the fridge for 30 minutes.
Grease a 30cm tart or flan tin.
Roll pastry out between 2 sheets of baking paper until 3mm thick.
Press down gently into the tin, use a fork to poke shallow holes into the pastry and place back into fridge for further 30 mins.
Preheat oven to 160 degrees (fan forced).
Place a sheet of baking paper over the pastry and blind bake (fill with uncooked rice or uncooked legumes).  Cook the pastry for 10 mins then discard the weights.  Cook for a further 15 mins or until the pastry is a light golden colour.
Filling:  Place the eggs, caster sugar, cream and lemon juice into the TM bowl.  Mix on speed 7 for 30 seconds.  Stir through lemon zest and pour the mixture into the pastry case.
Cook for 30-35 mins or until set in the middle.  Remove and allow to cool completely then refrigerate.
Dust with icing sugar to serve.
