Clare Latimer's recipe for
Nando’s coconut tart
Nando’s coconut tart
Nando has, to my mind, the best place to eat. It is a bit like a tree house and is a gem. He fishes by day and cooks his catch by night. We all chose this off the small menu and all made the same gasp of delight when we tasted this real treat. If you like custard and coconut then your dream has come true. Serve the tart warm with a spicy ice cream for perfection.
Ingredients
Serves 6 (…if you are lucky!)
125g butter
200g caster sugar
20 fl oz milk
2 teasp vanilla essence or rum
4 eggs
140g self raising flour
¼ teasp salt
2 desp dessicated coconut.
Method
Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/gas 4.
Butter a 20cm quiche dish. Cream the butter and sugar together and add the milk. Then add the rest of the ingredients and blend well. Pour into the greased dish and bake oven until golden brown on top, which will be about 1 hour, but check before this time.
