How to make it
- Mix the sugar and cornflour into a bowl and slowly add the eggs. Ensure that this is well mixed, removing any lumps.
- Bring the milk to the boil. Once the milk is boiling, pour the milk slowly into the bowl with the egg mixture.
- Pour the egg and milk mixture back into the pan and cook on medium heat for a few minutes until the custard becomes thick. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Cover with a plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator until ready to use.
- In the meantime, mix the hazelnut praline (or nutella) with the custard using a whisk.
- Semi-whip the cream.
- Mix the gelatin with the custard.
- Fold the custard into the semi-whipped cream.
- Cover with plastic wrap until ready to use.
- Base crispy layer
- In a bowl mix the praline , the melted milk chocolate, then the butter at room temperature, and then add the feuilletine.Spread a thin layer over the tart base and set aside.
- Chocolate Hazelnut Thing (adapted from David Chang’s Momofuku Cookbook)
- Place all the ingredients in a microwave proof bowl and microwave in 20 second intervals on high until the chocolate has melted.
- Add the caramelized hazelnuts until ready to use.
- Caramelized Hazelnuts
- Bring the sugar and water to a boil in a heavy based pan and let the temperature reach 115c (using a candy thermometer)
- Add the toasted hazelnuts and take the pan off the heat.
- Mix the nuts until the texture changes to become sugary like and bring back the pan on the heat.
- Mix carefully until the sugar turns into a golden caramel colour and place on a silpat or baking paper to cool.
- Assembly
- To assemble the tart, pipe hazelnut mousse on to the chocolate tart shell and then top with the Chocolate Hazelnut mixture (I used caramel flavored chocolate ganache), and a few caramelized hazelnuts.
