Method

5 soļi
  1. Pick over the berries. Rinse them briefly, tip them into a sieve and leave until all the water has run off. Hull strawberries and halve large ones.
  2. Heat the oven to 200 °C. Mix the berries gently with the sugar, cinnamon and zest. For raspberries, mix in the rusk crumbs too.
  3. Roll out two thirds of the pastry 3–4 mm thick and line a 24 cm tart tin. Fill with the berries.
  4. Roll out the rest of the pastry 2–3 mm thick and cut it into a decorated lid or strips for a lattice. Lay it on, stick it to the edge with a little water, crimp the edge and brush with beaten egg.
  5. Bake for 15 minutes, then turn the oven down to 180 °C and bake for another 20–25 minutes, until golden. Cool before cutting.

Notes

What the book says vs. what we added

the book has the berries picked over, washed and drained in a sieve, mixed with sugar, cinnamon and grated lemon peel, with crushed rusks for raspberries "because they are juicier", then baked "as is known" in fine puff pastry. The quantities, the lattice, the egg glaze, temperatures and times are ours.

Fill just before baking

sugared berries soon give off juice, which soaks the pastry. Mix them only when the oven is hot and the pastry is ready.
