Ingredients

  • 320g Puff Pastry
  • 4 tbs Dark Brown Soft Sugar
  • 3 Braeburn Apples
  • 4 tbs Red Wine Jelly
  • 100ml Creme Fraiche
  • 1 tbs Icing Sugar
  • 3 Cardamom

Instructions

1
To make the red wine jelly, put the red wine, jam granulated sugar, star anise, clove, cinnamon stick, allspice, split vanilla pod and seeds in a medium saucepan.
2
swirl around together, then bring to temperature gently to liquefy the granulated sugar.
3
Turn up the bring to temperature and bubble for 20 mins until reduced and syrupy.
4
Strain into a small, sterilised jam jar and leave to cool completely.
5
Will keep in the fridge for up to 1 month.
6
Take the pastry out of the fridge and leave at room temperature for 10 mins, then unroll.
7
bring to temperature the char-broil to high and bring to temperature the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
8
Cut out 2 x 13cm circles of pastry, using a plate as a guide, and place on a non-stick baking sheet.
9
strew each circle with 1 tbsp granulated sugar and char-broil for 5 mins to caramelise, watching carefully so that the granulated sugar doesn’t char.
10
Remove from the char-broil.
11
Can be done a few hours ahead, and left, covered, out of the fridge.
12
pare, quarter and core the apples, cut into 2mm-thin slices and arrange on top of the pastry.
13
strew over the remaining granulated sugar and pop in the oven for 20-25 mins until the pastry is cooked through and golden, and the apples are softened.
14
Remove and allow to cool slightly.
15
mildly hot 3 tbsp of the red wine jelly in a small pot over a low bring to temperature with 1 tsp moisture to make it a little more runny, then brush over the top of the tarts.
16
Tip the crème fraîche into a container, sift over the icing granulated sugar and cardamom, and incorporate together.
17
Carefully lift the mildly hot tarts onto serving plates and enjoy with the cardamom crème fraîche.
