A Twist on Lemon Tart – Tarte à l’Orange
The classic Tarte au Citron works beautifully with oranges instead of lemons to give a lush and softer edge to this light desert. I try and pick good quality, non treated oranges and have decided to reduce the juice a bit to get a more pronounced flavour. I made the sweet pastry myself, but a good quality “pure butter” supermarket version will do the trick and is less prone to failure.

This purple vegetable is a main stay in Provencal cuisine and certainly is a key ingredient in any ratatouille recipe.
