The recipe
For 4 tarts
Pastry cream
160g milk
2 egg yolks
40g sugar
15g cornflour
10g butter
Heat the milk. In a bowl, combine the egg yolks, sugar and cornflour. Pour the hot milk over the egg yolks. Stir. Pour back into the saucepan. Stir until the cream thickens. Remove from the heat and add the capful of rum. Mix well. Pour into a bowl, strain and chill.
Sweet pastry
70 g soft butter
130 g flour
45 g icing sugar
15 g almond powder
1 pinch of salt
1 egg yolk
Mix all the ingredients together. Roll out the dough thinly between 2 sheets of greaseproof paper and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Line the circles with the pastry. Place in the freezer for 10 minutes while you preheat your oven. Place in the oven at 170°C and bake for 15/20 minutes (time may vary depending on the oven).
Strawberry and raspberry compote
100g strawberry and raspberry mix
10g caster sugar
1g pectin NH
Mix the sugar and NH pectin in a small bowl. Pour the strawberry and raspberry mixture, cut into small pieces, into a saucepan and heat over a low heat for a few minutes. Then increase the heat and, as soon as it boils, add the pectin and sugar mixture and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
Top the tartlets with the compote.
Take the crème pâtissière from the fridge. Loosen it a little with a spatula and fill the tartlets.
Add red fruit: strawberries, raspberries and redcurrants.
I decorated the tartlets with mint leaves and chocolate squares made with chocolate transfer paper.
