Title: pineapple tarts from Taste of Asia cookbooks
Post by: mavvie on June 24, 2012, 06:48:42 am
I made these a few months ago and will definitely be making more as it's pretty close toast my mum made with less effort!

I made the pineapple filling the night before do that it will soak in more flavours from the spice and also that it would set to a thick consistency.

I made the open pineapple tarts. You should ensure that the pastry is rolled out not too thick. I found using the MC made it too large for my liking so I might try something else next time. Also, I found the pastry quite soft and hard to handle; when I asked my mum after it was all made, she suggested to wrap the pastry in cling wrap and leave it in the fridge for about 30 mins.

All in all, the taste was pretty authentic for me and made me feel less homesick ;)

Would love to see a photo of these little tarts - they sound very interesting mavvie.

In regard to the resting of the pastry, most time this is suggested so I don't know why they didn't say so this time.
