  • 260g plain flour
  • 60g icing sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 orange, zested
  • 250g Devondale Unsalted Butter (cold)
  • 50mL of water
INGREDIENTS (Passionfruit Curd)
  • 9 egg yolks
  • 2 eggs
  • 3/4 cup of sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
  • 2/3 cup passionfruit purée
  • 12 tablespoons unsalted, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 2 cups of whipped Devondale Thickened Cream

Methods

Method(Flaky Citrus Pastry)
  • Starting with the pastry, sieve the flour and icing sugar onto a cool bench, sprinkling with salt and orange zest.
  • Take the cold butter and grate it over the flour. Using your fingers, coat the butter in flour and separate any large clumps.
  • Make a well in the butter and flour mixture and pour in water.
  • Using the heel of your hand, push the butter into the flour and away from yourself. Pull the flour and butter back, repeating until you are left with a dough.
  • Wrap the dough tightly and place into the refrigerator to rest for an hour before using.
  • Once rested, roll the pastry onto a flour surface to about 3mm in thickness.
  • Invert a 23cm tin tart over the pastry and cut around the edges, leaving an extra 2cm border.
  • Push the pastry into the tin making sure to get right into the edges.
  • Refrigerate for 10 minutes.
  • Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes.
  • Line a pastry case with baking paper and fill with baking weights. Bake for approximately 15-20 minutes at 170°C. Remove the weights and return to the oven, baking until golden.
METHOD (Passionfruit Curd)
  • While the pastry is baking, prepare the curd.
  • In a thick based saucepan, add egg yolks, two whole eggs, sugar, vanilla and passion fruit puree. Whisk together.
  • Over a medium-low heat, gently heat the mixture while whisking constantly until it has thickened. This should take approximately 8-10 minutes.
  • Pass through a fine mesh sieve and stir in the butter.
  • Place the prepared tart shell on a baking sheet and pour the passionfruit curd into it.
  • Bake the tart at 160°C for 10-15 minutes, until the curd has set.
