Molten Orange Tarts (in Explore)
My latest endeavour in the kitchen.
The cutest little orange tarts with a centre like molten lava.
Got them from Geoff's site again... that guy makes some yummy things and they usually turn out very well. These were a bit more fiddly than I bargained for ... his video made them look easier somehow. (Don't they always?!)
There is a second video of an Italian girl making the original; upon which he based his version .. and, she seemed to have a more pliable dough for the pastry. I'll try her version next time. And, yes...there will definitely be a next time as they were sooooo tasty!!
I say were because they are definitely all gone. Sorry guys.....
We did give two to some neighbours...but, the recipe only makes 9, and we pigged out on the rest...albeit over several days.
I was surprised that the pastry crust stayed nice for days. The crust is like a fruit tart. It is only slightly crisp on the outside, but just nice texture on the inside of it.. the little balls on the surface stay so light and almost puffy.....and the orange centre is liquid gold. Yuummmmm!!!
Orange zest in the pastry just gives it a hint of orange too and it all is a very special treat.
Here are all the links ... my food blog, Geoff's recipe, and also the Youtube of the Italian site if you might like to give them a try.
