Ingredients

    Pastry:

    • 150g flour
    • l/4tsp salt
    • 2 tbsp corn flour
    • 100g butter or margarine
    • 1 1/2 tbsp icing sugar
    • 1 egg yolk

    Jam:

    • 250g grated pineapple
    • 150g sugar
    • 1 tbsp lemon juice

Method

    Sieve flour, corn flour, salt and icing sugar into a mixing bowl. Rub in margarine or butter and add egg yolk to form a dough.

    Roll pastry into 0.5cm thickness and stamp out with a cutter. Press about 0.25cm deep in the centre. Add one teaspoon of filling. If you like, you can decorate the tart with two strips of pastry placed to make a cross on the top.

    Bake in a preheated oven at 180ºC for 10 to 15 minutes or till lightly brown.

    Making the jam: Bring to a boil grated pineapple, sugar and lemon juice. Let it simmer for 30 minutes or until it thickens. Sieve in half a teaspoon of cornflour.

Pretty easy recipe for a first timer... not sure if the pastry was meant to have a "sandy" texture when you eat it... Jam turned out great... Overall... very satisfied and happy with the result.. every bite reminds me of home...

don't skim on the filling... trust me.. its worth it =)
