The Pasteis De Bellend

I think they’re known as ‘Melting Moments’ in the Be-Ro pastry book.

I love coconut and jam tarts.

Oh, hang on that’s a coconut biscuit.

Cheers, Guy. Looks great, I’ll be interested in how your pastry differs from that recipe.

More butter

Not a bad thing

Up 25-30 %

Lest there be an error with that which should only be used for lube.

It’ll have to be salted, I haven’t got any unsalted.

Thank fuck.

Is always the correct answer.

A good acid test for tarts is “do they travel well”? A simple drive to Plymouth would provide sufficient evidence.

The pastry recipe comes from here. NB you only need half of these amounts to make the number of tarts I made yesterday. The other half of the dough has gone in the freezer

This dough mix does require a proper kneading to get the butter & flour combined properly otherwise it’s too crumbly to use. Don’t be tempted to add water to it.

I did chill it first then rolled it flat between two sheets of clingfilm before pressing out the rounds. Made life easier.
