3. Pour the mixture into the pastry case and decorate the tart with a lattice pattern from the pastry cuttings if you wish.
4. Bake in a preheated oven, 1900C/375oF/Gas Mark 5 for about 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is just set and looks golden brown.
5. Leave the tart to cool slightly in the tin, then serve.
