This is a great recipe for using up those last little bits you have left in the fridge. You do not have to use the same ingredients as I have, use this recipe as an idea.

  • Blind Baking - To prevent pastry cases from becoming soggy, they need to be partially cooked before adding moist fillings. This is what is known as blind baking, sealing the surface, giving you a nuce crisp pastry case. To achieve this:
  1. Line the base and sides of your uncooked pastry case with baking paper.
  2. Place rice, dried beans, or metal or ceramic baking weights on top of the baking paper (they stop the pastry from rising while its cooking.)
  3. Bake in an oven preheated to 220C for approximately 10 minutes.
  4. Remove the pastry case from the oven and carefully remove the baking paper and weights. Cook for a further 8 minutes until light golden.
  5. Your pastry case is now ready for its filling and the final cook.
