This tart is ridiculously easy, largely because the pastry case, which is buttery and almost shortbread-like, is ready-made from Marks & Spencer. It takes no more than 40-45 minutes from beginning to end.

ingredients
-
1 x ready-made All-Butter Sweet Pastry Case (from M&S)
-
225 ml double cream
-
2 x Seville oranges
-
3 egg yolks
-
3 tbsp caster sugar
-
To Serve – the grated zest of a Seville orange, icing sugar for dusting (both optional)
directions
1. Preheat the oven to 160C. Put the pastry case onto a baking sheet. (Reserve the packaging for storage, if freezing the finished tart.)
2. Pour the cream into a measuring jug. Grate the zest, then halve and squeeze the juice from the oranges into the jug.
3. Add the egg yolks and sugar and gently whisk everything together well. Pour into the pastry case.
4. Bake for 25 – 30 minutes, until barely set and still trembling in the middle. Bear in mind it will carry on cooking as it cools.
5. Serve warm or cold, with the grated zest and/or a dusting of icing sugar, if using. Some crème frâiche or double cream would be good too.
Recipe Note
Get-Ahead:
The tart will last in the fridge for several days. It also freezes like a dream.
