How to make Sorrento Lemon Tart
- For this recipe we need ready-made shortcrust pastry and Pastry Cream. My advice is to prepare both bases first.
- First we take the shortcrust pastry and roll it out on the pastry board to the height of half a cm. We line a buttered 22,24 cm tart mold. Once ready, we prick the bottom and pour the cream inside.
- With the rest of the shortcrust pastry we crumble it over the tart and bake at 180°C (350°F) ventilated for about 40 minutes. Once ready let’s take it out of the oven and then let it cool completely. Once cold let’s serve it with a dusting of powdered sugar.
