Ingredients for sweet pastry base
Milk 1 litre
Sugar 200 gm
Custard powder 90 gm
Vanilla essence 1 tsp
Mix the powder with a little cold milk / water and make a paste. Boil the milk and add sugar. Stir in the custard powder and whisk until custard is formed. Add the essence and cool down immediately. Fruits such as kiwi, plums, strawberry and pomegranate give attractive results. Slice these fruits thinly and keep ready. Just pour a little custard into each tart shell and then cover it nicely with the sliced fruit. Garnish with a few pomegranate seeds.
