This is a great French tart recipe- in France you would see this in any patisserie. This recipe is from David Braim, a chef who has a patisserie at the Prahran markets, here in Melbourne. It's great...

Ingredients
  • Pears:
  • 8 peeled pears
  • water to cover
  • 1 cup sugar (I use less)
  • 4 sheets sweet short pastry
  • Frangipane Cream (Almond tart filling):
  • 195g butter
  • 195g caster sugar
  • 3 small eggs, whisked
  • 195g almond meal (ground almonds)
  • 30g flour
  • flaked almonds

Directions
  1. Place pears in a large pot with sugar and cover with water. Gently poach for 30 mins.
  2. Remove, core and cut in half.
  3. Cut 8 @11-12 cm discs from the pastry and place each disc in a greased 10cm start mould so it just hangs over the side.
  4. To make filling, cream butter and sugar, beat in egg; stir in almond meal and flour until well combined.
  5. Spoon into raw pastry shells -only half fill as it rises quite a bit.
  6. Place a pear half on top and sprinkle with flaked almonds.
  7. Bake at 160degC for 25 mins.
  8. Remove from oven and allow to cool. Sprinkle with icing sugar and serve.
