Lemon Tart

After my not so successful attempt of Pizza, I decided to attempt another dessert. However, after watching all the episodes of week 8, there were no dessert challenges except for the Adam and Aaron cook off where they made the lemon tart for Matt Moran. So I decided to do a Baked Lemon Tart.



Using the same pastry recipe as the frangipane tart, I made the base but this time I blind baked it for a little while. For the filling, I modified Carrie's Signature Dish which was a baked lemon tart. I only modified it because of the size of the tin I had. It was a simple mixture of eggs, sugar, cream, lemon zest and lemon juice.



Anyways, in the end the tart turned out great! It was a tad sour but since I served it with some whipped cream and some fresh strawberries, you couldn't really notice.
