Ingredients
- 375 g sheet butter puff pastry (see Note)
- 2 bunches rhubarb, trimmed
- 2 tbsp plain flour
- ⅓ cup almond meal
- ¼ cup caster sugar
- ⅓ cup strawberry jam
- ¼ cup honey
- ⅓ cup slivered pistachios, or roasted chopped pistachios
- sea salt flakes, for sprinkling
- double cream and ice-cream, to serve
Resting time: 10 minutes
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 200˚C. If you are using one large sheet of pastry, place it on a baking tray lined with baking paper. If you’re joining two smaller square pieces, use a fork to crimp one edge to join and make a rectangle. Lightly score a 3 cm border around the edges of each square with a knife, without cutting all the way through. Use a fork to dock the pastry inside of the border. Bake for 10 minutes until sides start to puff up and the base is no longer raw.
2. Trim the rhubarb to the same length as the size of the short length of the inside of the pastry. Remove pastry from oven and press down the middle so you just have the raised sides.
3. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, almond meal and sugar and scatter over the base of the pastry. Lay over the rhubarb stalks, ensuring minimal gaps.
4. In a small bowl, combine the jam and honey, then brush over the rhubarb. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the pastry sides are deep golden and the rhubarb is softened. Allow to cool slightly.
5. Scatter the rhubarb tart with pistachios, sea salt flakes and serve with double cream and/or ice-cream.
Note
